The unfortunate truth behind any medication used for pain, be it a true narcotic pain med or an antidepressant pretending to be a painkiller, is that you are the only one that can judge the effects good or ill. I saw someone gave you a link on Lyrica, you should give it a good look, especially the negative side effects, and then take it and see what happens. Don't be discouraged that it's not an honest to god what you may consider a pain reliever, there are pains that do not respond well to those kinds of drugs either, so you have just as good a chance of Lyrica helping you as morphine. Just don't settle for minor relief and if it's actions are not adequate, do not hesitate to contact your doc and tell him it's not cutting it.
Wishing you great results--og

I've been on it for a month now....started at 150mgs twice a day, Doc has since raised it to 300 mgs twice a day. Can't really tell if it is helping or not. I was on Neurontin which did help, however it caused some ungodly sweating... Mike

I had been on Neurontin for about 4 years, 3200mg a day. The side effects weren't too bad, except for, as you said, the constant sweating and I was tired all the time. Anyway, after 4 years it was starting to get to the point where it wasn't as effective anymore so my doc put me on Lyrica. He did say it would take 2-3 weeks before I'd get the full effects of it.
i have been on lyricia for about 2years now and it has been helping . it makes my head swim and makes me off balance but i would rather have that than the pain.\
