Hugo, I forgot to tell you that a Neurologist first prescribed Lyrica at 50 mg at night and after taking it a couple of nights I really felt disoriented in the morning and quit. Than when I went to a Psych. a couple of months later (long story)...he wanted to try me out on a real low dose of Lyrica and gradally increase and he started me out on 25 mg at night and every couple weeks increased it 25 mg. because I am so sensitive to meds. And now I am up to 125 mg. total a day. So your dr. might have started you out on too high a dose? The drawback on starting out on a lower dose might take longer for you to feel the benefits of the Lyrica I would think?
