Lyrica and my body were not in agreement - I put on 45 lbs and burst a blood vessel that hemorrhaged for 10 days. I went off Lyrica and lost the same 45 lbs without even trying! I still hurt the whole time I was on Lyrica.
For me, the gabapentin and clonazepam help with the spinal injury. But it's baclofen that helps with the muscles. Every time I think I can try skipping it, the spasms are horrendous. I go back on the baclofen, and the muscles relax. Now I have also discovered that gabapentin loses effect when taken with ca/mg, antacids or prilosec. When I go to my rheumy in two weeks I'm going to tell him about the improvement I've had by separating the two. Of course, now I have 6 dose times a day and no sense of time! :)
I'm glad the doctor is taking a close look at your meds to see what works for you. We're all so different, huh!
