Lyrica Lawsuit (Page 64)

Updated

Does anyone know if there is an ongoing lawsuit against the company who puts out Lyrica? I am a mess from it. Do we have a leg to stand on when it comes to the side effects they found out from people like us? I am a long termer. I have been taking 900 mg since 2005. Is there anyone representing us? Thank you

Lyrica is the cure all for pain, just ad aspirin was when it came out and penicillin was the antibiotic to kill all illness R's. Why should Lyrica be any different. Let's get everybody's brains fried then we won't complain about the government or anything important.

Am a firm believer the Government would like to dumb us down so that they may control us and Lyrica is the perfect dumbing down drug to do it ...

I agree. Lyrica jss been prescribed even for gout. For me, tylenol3 helps my pain. There are other drugs out there that are even stronger than the tylenol3. Also depending on where your pain is a yens unit along with tylenol4, vicodan, or any other drug containing codein may help The only thing you have to worry about is an addiction if there is a chance you will get better, but most of the conditions Lyrica is used the other dogs work better without frying your pain. I think the government is pushing Lyrica because they want us to exist with fried brains, after all, why are they putting all kinds of rules for prescribing opiates. I think now is the time maujuna ( excuse typos) should be made legal. I believe the people with pain should be prescribed maujurana along with physical therapy or a tens unit and special cream that can be rubbed on the area of pain where a tens unit is not possible. A pain patch could work the same way as a nicotine patch works. There are several ways medicine can be given. IV is the fastest, then comes the oral route which is slower, then the subcutaneous route which nicotine patches work which is the slowest, but it works. Use a patch or cream for areas that a patch or tens unit would not work. I forget, inhalation therapy like people with breathing problems use. There are so many ways a pain medicine can be given and other drugs that can be used that don't have the same effects as Lyrica. Let's do a maurironau ( typo) study. If it can help those with cancer or HIV, then let's do a study for those with chronic pain. Maybe the government has done the study and found it works, but the government doesn't want to lose their kickbacks.

I took 75 of Lyrica ONE time. It was awful. Within a half hour I couldn't see, I was dizzy, couldn't walk a straight line, slurred speech, etc. After many hours most of the symptoms left. One remained and I still have it. Tremors. Tremors in both of my index fingers and 3rd fingers always simultaneously and shoulder twitches. I can no longer draw blood from patients because purposeful actions make my fingers twitch, I also have a lot of twitching going on when I drink coffee or when I am not feeling well. I have no control over them, they stop when they want. This has been going on since the first of December. ONE dose.

I feel ashamed, but a few years ago I became severely severely depressed, I was going through things with my illnesses but I felt out of control. I was on lyrica at the time. My ex had my daughter while I was really ill with my fibro an while I was trying to figure out what all was going on with my body. My daughter is my world but he took control over her. I never thought I would ever attempt suicide but I did, suicide was a huge part of my thoughts back then. But now that I'm no longer on lyrica... Huge difference in my way of thinking, let alone in functioning.

I just got out of the hospital for suicidal thoughts, was going to slit my wrists, but thank G*d I got hysterical, violently shaking, before I accomplished it and dropped the knife. Called my daughter and she took me to the hospital where I was admitted.. I have taken Lyrica for over 8 years, started at a lower dosage, but over the year it's been increase to where I am now taking 350 mg daily. I believe because of taking Lyrica, having insomnia and may of the other side effects, that the Lyrica cause my break with reality. I suffer from Neuropathy, the Lyrica did help some.. though not enough. I am bipolar and haven't had this kind of reaction before, though for sometime I have had trouble with depression. I read here about a class action suite, but from what I have read in these post, it's hard to find or get into one.. Still I would like to get all the information I can, can any direct me to information?

I take Tylenol #3 for pain. I refuse to take any of these new drugs they are putting on the market because of what Lyrica did to me it's been nine years off Lyrica and I still have memory problems . I lose things and forget where I put them. I have trouble in college remembering what the teacher said. I'm 74 years old and Alzheimer's does not run in my family.

Hi Nick, memory hasn't returned yet. But I just started two days ago to come off the Lyrica.. at least I slept more last night and my depression has improved. Although, my pain level has increased, but I am so sick of side effect of medication that MAYBE I can learn to get by.. taking only something OTC for pain.

Hi, i only wanted to state this 1 time but ive had something that happened to me & w/o a doubt its the Lyrica. I have been on it 3 different times,1st time as much as i think 75 mg, 2nd time i was up to 200mg & started over a 2yr time comin off. well i got down to 100mg, also came off 13yrs of pain meds. well i changed pain drs from just a influenced, wannabe ortho dr to a real caring group of anesthesiologist & in my experiences those r the best @ knowing what meds interact but a lot of meds worked reversal on my mom & so they do me, so i chose this group. well the lyrica was took back up to 300 mg 1x day, then the next month along with me havin to go on a pain med, ONLY bc 1wk to the day of no meds, i had to take in another grandchild to keep him outa states hands, already raise 1 thats 10, had her since 13 months. but she's lived with my disabilities altho she has adhd, impulsiving disorder, been diagnosed with bipolar, anywazys this child is an extremely unruly 2yo. so i had to do sumin relyin on their word that it would get better.

I agreed to up my dosage to what this group of anesthesiologist says that the mg limit is on lyrica is 450mg in a days time. so im on 225mg a day. Well whats happening (still) has happened twice before but never lasted after i got awake, but my husband woke me up tues am, my eyes opened but i couldnt move for a couple secs, then my whole body when into what ive learned is my body havin severe anxiety levels. but 2 times its happened before when on lyrica have always went away mentally when id get awake. well its like havin a silent migraine until my head starts hurtin a few hrs later, that is whats happenin since tues am. When i move my eyes to look at something inside my head i can hear what sounds like a bionic sound as my brain is not on track with my eyes. it causes severe mental slowness & visual. i cant hold a convo bc ill just drop what im sayin bc i forget. my arthritis among several other chronic pain issues not related to the fibro or nerve pain has flared up and hurts like never before & ive dealt with pain issues for 18yrz.

I need to know whatever anyone knows as long as there facts to get something done, altho im comin off this & all other pain meds once again. my life & breath is wrapped around caring for all six of my grandchildren. If i cant get sum kinda mental stability, my time with them has to be supervised as long as its the youngest 3, bc they're 5 & 2yo but my newest is 4 months. Please if anyone knows anything about anything. i just found this site, so i missed the support session, but will join the group. {edited for privacy}. I feel we need to come together & get this drug thats already caused so many people to loose the normally of life. I thank u for reading, hoping everyone can get justice for what this & other government ways of "knocking off the population" brought to a true justice system, wherever that may be. Just sayin. But my prayers for all who suffer. THANKS & GODBLESS!

Hi, you have an interesting story about the Anxiety panic attach caused by Lyrica , my son never had any sign of Anxiety until his Lyrica dose hit 300 mg per day and then he instantly developed a very severe Anxiety disorder that he still has five years after his last dose of Lyrica, also his memory used to be very sharp and was an A student has been severely effected with no improvement either , he is only 22 years of age so even his youthful strength has not saved him , Lyrica needs to be banned , it is a curse on humanity ... .
