Has anyone ever tried Lyrica for neuropathy?

Have had PN for at least 20 years- not diabetic but lower back injury in my younger days considered to be my problem (now 85)
Take pregagalin (Lyrica)100mg after evening meal prior to bed time /no medication during the day and yes some days if I dont rest occasionally it can be somewhat painful - most nights this is enough Lyrica to allow a reasonable night’s sleep. I am Australian and appreciate Mayo Clinic to allow me to be involved. — John G

Welcome @johnglass, Thanks for sharing your experience with Lyrica. I'm almost 83 and have been dealing with PN for close to 45 years but just have numbness in the feet and legs and degenerative arthritis pain. Fortunately I don't have to take medication for the pain other than a few topicals for the arthritis pain. Glad that you found Connect.
