Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
"I was taking Lyrica for several years.  I stopped taking it because of the price.  My prescription medications are covered by Medicare &amp; other insurance, but I do not believe in indiscriminately spending Medicare money.  So, again, only because of the cost, I stopped. 
My feet went wild, burning pain, could not even have the bed covers on them at night.  I got my Rx for Lyrica renewed and when it came I first took 2 caps in order to see if it would get started again.  It did!  I&#039;m going to be doing a bit of research on the internet for a lower cost alternative.  Gabapentin looks good at the moment, maybe on my next doc appt. I&#039;ll try it.
I gave it only a 9 because of the cost, but for effectiveness I&#039;d give it as high a number as allowed."
