Welcome Pat! I'm on both groups also, I just don't have much time to visit over there on the Fibro forum. Unfortunately, I can't help you on the Lyrica. I've never taken it. But I might be able to help with the nausea. Ginger is great for tummy troubles. I use a ginger tea. Just be careful not to steep it too long. It will be spicy.  You could also try taking Dramamine. That works if your feeling really ill and don't have access to ginger. I actually keep it in my purse just to be safe. I'm a little different than you. I get the migraine which leads to nausea. I guess the nausea is sort of like the aura for you--it gives you a little warning. I hope that helps a little. I'm sure others will have ideas as well. Feel free to jump in and visit on any threads that interest you. You'll find this is a wonderful group of people who know a lot. Everyone will be will to offer support and understanding. Believe me, this is the place to be if you need understanding. We are happy to have you here. http://www.EasingChronicPain.com
