Stand Up For Your Self

Don't let them do that to you. Stand up and give it back and chance your pharmacists to someone else. Most will mail the meds to you.Of course check and make sure. You might be able to do it over the phone.

Hi @A MySpondylitisTeam Member, I was on Lyrica for about 4 months last year. Started me really slow on it. I was taking it because my legs were swelling bad. It did help me to sleep but not the swelling. So I didn't want to take it any more because I had heard that it was hard to get off of it. So they took me down really slowly. That's all I can tell you about my time on it. Hugs, Katy

Anybody on Lyrica? My doctor just increased the dosage but I don’t notice any change.

Thanks.
