Works for me! Are you starting off at a lower dose and slowly increasing? Beware of sexual side effects e.g. preferring to eat a sandwich instead of fooling around. (For me if > 20 mg/day).
Also, it's good for depression *and* anxiety. Good luck and be aware of its other side effects/warnings. Mom

I found Lyrica equal to Neurontin as far as nerve pain managment but both took away my desire to do just about anything. Concentration was difficult. They also negatively affected my eyesight. After about 2 years post op, my pain was managable enough and I gave them both up. My choice, not necessarily for everyone but if my pain hadn't lessoned, I would have stuck with it.
Twiddling your diddlies is better than writhing in pain. I wish you the best, Dale... Happy holidays
