Neurontin was...

    Lyrica and Coughing?

    Has anyone noticed a "prickly throat" cough with Lyrica? Starting almost literally just hours after my first dose I've felt like I've had pin-prick points of irritation in my throat. Like a single grain of sand has stuck to my throat and I can't cough it up. Drinking doesn't help, either, and it...

    I feel like nothing works...

    I am in such severe pain constantly. Pain medication does not work unless it is strong and I will not take that because I do not want to be out of it. Those kind of medications are just not an option in my book. I currently take topiramate but feel it really does not work. I would really...
