Lyrica Did Help

Updated

Hi, My name is Laurie and I am 44 yrs. Old. I have had 4 lower lumbar su rgeries. I live in chronic pain and take pain meds on a daily basis. However, for the last year or so my health has been very poor. Its hard for me to describe to a doctor let alone anyone else about the symptoms I've been having but ill give it a shot cause I need all the help I can get. IM always tired and no its not the meds that make me that way and being ti red is the least of my problems. I feel discusstally ill. Almost like IM going through constant withdraw. It keeps me awake at night. I can be sitting still in a cool room and start sweating perfusely. I've gained alot of weight even though I eat like a bird. My face and eyes are always swollen. All the doctors have found out is IM insulin resistant and my sed rate had been elevated. They put me on meds to control the insulin, they also call it pure diabetes. It had not changed this very ill sickening feeling I have. Its almost unbearable to feel this way. however they put me on 300 mg of lyrica a day and it has helped a great deal but its not enough anymore. I just keep getting sicker. I feel like honestly IM gone die before they figure out what's going on. And if anyone has ever felt the effects of withdraw try living with it every single day. I can't even spend time with my grand daughter like I use to cause she is only three and I can't keep after her anymore. I have no quality of life anymore at all. Has anyone ever heard of these crazy symptoms before. IM willing to go to the other side of the world for help. I want to live. I love life or use to anyway. Any help would be wonderful. Thank you and God Bless to all, Laurie

What types of tests have they performed? Have they sent you to any specialists to have anything checked in relation to the surgeries you had?

If there is some type of nerve damage, especially spinal related, it could explain many of the symptoms you are experiencing.
