So if anyone is going to try it beware!!!, I have had nothing but bad days since, my neck and lower back are killing me from all that uncontrolable jerking, I was taking cmybalta, vicodin, percocet,flexeril,retoril to sleep , i have been slowly going back on those as i had to stop all when i went on the lyrica, i finally got some sleep last night Praise the Lord!!!! I still have bad burning pain in the surface of my thighs if i stand to long, and my neck is still killing me but i am taking the flexeril 2 times a day now and my husband does give me a neck rub that helps for a little while but i'll take what i can get, i have bad back pain L4 and L5 bulging, tore the mediscus and chronic sciatica , got epidural shots for it , found out to late that i was only suppose to have 2 shots a year ive had 6 shots this year went from 136lbs to 188 i feel like humpty dumpty, but i am on a diet and have lost 10 lbs in last two weeks, so i feel good about that, i have dial up on my computer and i can not stay to long on it so i will write back asap usually in am, and around 7pm i can get on with little trouble, the weather here in North Carolina has been killing me, one day 70 next 40s my body is going crazy, well i;ve talked your ears off enough so i guess i;ll go Betty hang in there it took me 2 1/2 yrs to get my ssdi it is crazy i read they are so far behind but if you get a lawyer that knows his stuff it will take less time i found out the hard way, Good days ahead to all Cherie
