*Not trying to scare off anyone considering taking this medication, but 
one has to be very careful with Lyrica, it has some very nasty side 
effects. Make sure your doctor starts you on a low dose and that you and 
your doctor monitor yourself very closely for these. Make a list of all 
of them and keep it handy. I was put on Lyrica and it made my life 
horrendous with a lot of misery until they could get me off of it. One 
also has to be weened off Lyrica, abrupt stopping of the taking of this 
medication can actually kill you. Here are a couple of links that tells 
you about Lyrica for you and your doctor to consider::
