Hello

I am new to this forum. I am suffering from a herniated disc and have been prescribed Lyrica for pain. Is there anyone who has taken it who has not gained weight? I gain weight easily and it seems that its results are mixed for pain relief but guaranteed for weight gain. Thanks for your input.

it doesnt seem to have the weight gianing properties on neurontin,
with neurontin i was craving carbohydrates, only cravings i get now are when i take the oxyxodone at night..

I have been on Lyrica for a little over a week now and there has been no increase in my appitite nor has there been any decrease in the pain. We have to give it time to see how we react to Lyrica. Good luck.
