I HAVE BEEN SUFFERING FROM MIGRAINES FOR YEARS. IT BROUGHT MY CAREER AS A BOND SPECIALIST TO AN END DUE TO THE FREQUENCY OF HEADACHES THAT I HAD. I WENT THRU MANY DR.'S
AND HAVE BEEN SEEING A NEUROLOGIST WHO PRESCRIBED LYRICA FOR ME AS A PEVENTATIVE. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN YEARS I HAVE GONE A WEEK WITHOUT A MIGRAINE. I STILL GET THEM . SOME NOT AS BAD AS BEFORE .I WILL PROBABLY GET MY RX INCREASED DOSAGE OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. I HOPE THAT HELPS ME

Best regards,

Kevin.

I started Lyrica two weeks ago and it is miraculous in relieving my debilitating cluster headaches. This medicine is a miracle.
