Sometimes it will flair the nerves off before it helps.

Lyrica doesn't work for everyone. If it is causing you pain to increase and your doc doesn't listen, find another doc immediately.

You deserve SO much more than this one is doing for you!

I have not heard of it either, but if the doctor looks at you funny, they are not the right doctor. I had the same issue with my gyro whom I had been seeing since I was 18, did not like how she was treating me and lucky for me I found someone who listened. I hope you get pain meds you need abd nofurthe complications. Sleep is very important I know.
