I've been prescribed Lyrica CR 82.5mg Tablets for my fibromyalgia, and while they've helped with the nerve pain, I've been experiencing some side effects like dizziness and drowsiness. Has anyone else had similar issues? How have you managed them? I'm also curious about the long-term effects of this medication. I've heard it can cause memory problems or loss, which is concerning. Anyone have any insights or tips on how to cope with these side effects? Also, is it normal to feel extremely euphoric sometimes? It's a bit disconcerting.

The drowsiness is normal. And the euphoria, it's just your body adjusting to the medication. Given time, it evens out. If you're experiencing any signs of an allergic reaction or serious side effects, seek medical attention immediately. Don't let it linger.

I was on Lyrica for a while and the dizziness was unbearable. I had to switch to a different medication. Definitely talk to your doctor about it.

Have you considered physical therapy or other non-medication methods to manage your fibromyalgia? Sometimes a combination of treatments can be more effective.

I've been on Lyrica for a few months now and haven't experienced any serious side effects. Just a bit of drowsiness initially, but it went away after a week. Maybe it's just your body adjusting to the meds.
