Side effects from Lyrica

I didn’t experience balance issues but did experience considerable brain fog, memory issues, just general cloudiness which has been really frustrating. It also alters my depth perception so I sometimes park 3 feet away when pulling in but I can’t tell until I get out of the car.

Stick with LDN - it’ll take 2-3 months to fully feel the effect but it does work.

From gabapentin to Lyrica. Due to age and diabetes I maxed out on Gabapentin dosage but the max limits allowable for Lyrica were larger so I switched easily to it.

I was told that anyone taking Lyrica if you need to get new health insurance taking that drug the insurance companies won't give you coverage. I don't take it but wonder why they won't insure anyone taking Lyrica or any anti-conlvulsive drugs.

I take Lyrica and my Humana insurance covers it. Shouldn’t be a problem; it’s a common drug.

I have been on pregabalan since 2021 and it definitely has helped me with my pain from Multiple Myeloma

I had the same brain fog etc. experience with Lyrica. Went back on Gabapentin. It works better for me. One thing I noticed is when you stop or lower these meds there is a rebound effect where your symptoms get worse than they actually are. Makes you think you can’t switch meds or quit.
It dies down after a few days. At least it did for me.

It seems to affect some people and not others. Glad you get relief. What dosage do you take?
