[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 175257, member: 1233"] Hi! I have fibro and have been on lyrica for over 2 years now. It helps a lot, though I still need pain medications and other medications. But I have other health problems too. I do get some swelling in my legs. The doctor gave me a "water pill" to use when that happens. Don't take an over the counter one, the prescribed ones won't mess up other things as much. If I get the flu or for some other reason can't keep anything down, I really notice a strange Jumpy feeling in my legs. It hurts. It is because I have not had the lyrica. When I can get the lyrica back in my system it goes away. Just a warning so if you get that symptom you can try to get the medication back in to stop that feeling. for a long time it kept my migraines (lifelong problem) under control, but lately I need something else to help prevent them. If you have migraines it may be able to do this for you also. Just for info, I am on 150 mg three times a day. Anyway, I hope this helps. I think it is a good medicine for me, but I know others who have not had good reactions to it. [/QUOTE]
