Sponsor NancyJones 05-07-2007, 03:11 PM Tawny - I just started Lyrica which is the newer version of Gabapentin (Neurontin). So far side effects are only tiredness. Seems to help the pain a little, but I don't think I've been on it enough. Good luck, let's hope we get some relief. Do you have nerve pain? Where is it located? tawnyjade 05-07-2007, 03:40 PM Hi Nancy, I just started two nights ago. The pharmasist said I should feel effects within a week! I am excited! I have pain that is not easy for me to explain. It can be anywhere on my body. It is extreme. So extreme that I say "ugh" out loud. It may last for 1 minute in one spot or 2 days.
