I hope he has you cutting back the neurontin slowly as you take the Lyrica???
Yes, taking 3600 mg per day my memory was the pits too.  Not terrific now but I don't feel like I'm in such a fog. 
I feel fortunate that I am able to cut back as there are many who can't.

Yes, neurontin was the drug of choice! I was up to 3600mg. a day.. but I was having "memory" problems... so my new neuro wants me to cut back. I now take 600mg 4 times a day... morning, afternoon, evening and then whenever I wake in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. :)
