Lyrica--any suggestions

I m not sure what my side effects with the higher dosage will be but I now know what side effects to look for. (I had about 4 days of head ""fuzziness"" (light headed and space-y part of the time.) I am also having some (much unwanted)weight gain.

As for my Fibro pain, I DO have less overall but the misery is in my lower neck base and across my shoulders.

I am relatively new to these forums and just finding my way around so don t know when I ll find your posts again. Hope to chat soon !!!

What strength dosage are you on ?

Two weeks ago I started with 50mg ... Had some fuzzy mornings the first week but nothing long lasting or severe. Just made me very silly for a short period ...

I (thankfully) DO notice some difference in my pain levels but dr. wants me to start 75mg dosage first of next week.

Reading your post, I m a tad leery of starting a higher dose ... Hmmmm ?

Have you also been to a Neuro ?

It was hard getting on the lyrica. but it helped my pain so much and gave me agreat feeling of hope because i could begin light excercise.

Latley I ahve begun to worry aobut my moods. I am haivng conflicyt in many of my relationships. Not all.

I live alone so it is hard for me to know id i am really changing mood wise.

I ahve ahd trouble with a sexual side effect. It was not pleasant at all. I hope to overcome this some way.

I am vey new to this forum. any suggestion or input aobut lyrica.

Hugs,
