Answer: Some of time. I'm still taking pains with the lyrica. Lyrica makes me sleep better at night. It makes me feel more alive, but I still do not feel myself. My legs swell, my hands too, I get awful headachs, I see things that are not there, etc. Even with all this I feel I should still stay on the Lyrica. Elaine Parkinson  =

Answer: I have only been on Lyrica for a few weeks, but can say it has helped with my chest pain. I am also sleeping much better. Still hoping for better mornings, but it takes weeks for the drug to really kick in at full force. I think it is worth a try.  =

Answer: It took the edge off. Makes me feel like a zombie, EXCESSIVE swelling of the ankles and feet to the point of feeling like they'll burst. Still disruptive sleep patterns. Disappointed thus far.  =
