Pregabalin
"It does work for nerve pain but the side effects were horrible.  Weight gain, blurred vision, shaking, falling asleep at the dinner table, anger, feeling of not caring about anything, feeling like a zombie.  Getting off Lyrica is worse.  Have to get off a little bit at a time. I am now down to 75mg twice a day.  I feel like a new person.  I am back to normal, however pain has increased.  At this point I would rather put up with the pain than the side effects.  I know my wife is glad I am back."
