neuropathic pain
"Lyrica works.  Unfortunately, I am on the verge of discontinuing use because of significant side effects.  The most troubling for me are the eye disorders (conjunctivitis and blurred vision), and the dementia.  I am 53 years old and I have trouble remembering elementary words! It's very embarrassing. I also have a significant taste disorder... many things taste like "burnt garlic" to me... that's the best way I can describe it.  Finally, I have facial bloating, weight gain, and dizziness. I have been on the maximum dose of Lyrica for chronic pain due to degenerative disc disease in my neck. I was willing to endure the weight and dizziness, but the eye, memory and taste problems are intolerable. Too bad, because Lyrica really helps pain."
