Medication Success?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone tried lyrica or gabapentin to reduce their symptoms? If so did it help? Did you have any side effects from it?

I was on lyrica for facial nerve pain. I took one dose and it made me hallucinate, so never took it again. Took gabapentin for facial nerve pain and it worked great. It did nothing for my endo pain. It caused me to gain weight and have a puffy face as well as severe dry eyes and made my vision worse. I was on the lowest dose possible
