ibromyalgia
"I was formally diagnosed with fibromyalgia August 2009.  After 8 months of trying other medicines and physical therapy I finally gave in to my Doctor and tried Lyrica. I was nervous because I had used Neurontin in the past with bad side effects and thought Lyrica would be the same. I was wrong. Lyrica does make me sleepy but I take 75 mg at night about 2 hours before bed. My Doctor started me out on the lowest dosage and it has worked miracles for me. I have less pain and my muscles don&#039;t seem to spasm or twitch as much, I am able to increase my activity levels which helps with the stiff muscles. It also has helped to calm the nerves in my foot that were irritated in an unrelated injury. This medicine has been a miracle for me."
