Lyrica Good & Bad

Updated

Ted: I have been on Lyrica 150mg bid for a little over 4 yrs. This drug has been great for me. I started at 75mg bid, for about a week. Then I think 100mg bib for about a wk, Then to 150mg bid. Lyrica works great for me. I had very little to no feeling in back and down both legs. And no feeling in left abd, from mid back around left side to bast mid line in the front. I had 10 hr back surgery.They said that I would be in a wheel chair, that was on 12 Feb, on 2 March less than 2wks later I took my first 2 steps. I walk with out any kind of help. I also have feeling in both legs and feet. And all the in my abd but a space about the size of a dinner plate in front and I am getting more back. I also send 3 to 4 a day (5days a wk) working out at the YMCA I swim walk an work out in the pool, for 30 60 mins a day 5days a week, I also work out, play rackett ball,tread mill and or bike. My withe is up and down 4 to 6 lbs, Thais is why I do not gain a lot of weight, This also good for my hart. The other day I took the wrong pill box down I started them. After about 3 days I started to feel real bad, I looked and saw that there was no Lyrica in there, I started it back abd with in 2 days I started to feel better, NOTE DO NOT STOR LYRICA COLD., I think LKyrica is great an I do not like to take drugs.
