Another One Bites The Dust!

After taking Lyrica for aproximately 2 months, I have developed a severely erratic heartbeat and high blood pressure (which I have NEVER had before!)... Doc thinks its the Lyrica so..... the only med that has helped AT ALL has to be stopped! I am so disgusted with this damn disease and what it has done to my body, mind and spirit!!!

Re: Another One Bites The Dust!

So sorry to hear you are going through this Donnad!! I have been on Lyrica for about 2 years. I was already being treated for a rapid heartbeat,Takcardia (SP), I read is also a lovely gift from the Fibro. It would be a shame if this was the problem and not the Lyrica. I hope you get things straightened out soon so you can go back to being a little more comfortable. Stay in touch...Cat
