ibromyalgia
"I have been on Lyrica for 3 years. It has really helped with my pain (dulls it). However, I am now wanting to switch to Neurontin because Lyrica has caused me to gain over 40lbs. I also have had to raise the dose to 150mg 3 x daily. It really helped with the insomnia that I had suffered with for 10 years. If Lyrica did not have the side effect of weight gain, I would stay on it. Would I recommend this drug, yes I would."
