I had too many side effects on 3000mg of Neurontin a day and switched to Lyrica a several months ago. Did will at 300 mg daily but again the side effects interfered too much with daily life, specifically, my thought processes, concentration and eyesight.

My pm suggested acupuncture which I began about 2 months ago. I'm down to 200 mg daily and if I can, will reduce weekly until I'm off of it. I also reduced Celebrex to once daily instead of twice but time will tell. I'm skeptically hopeful.
