Guest guest Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 , I've always been sensitive to meds, whether it's in a good or a bad way. Speaking of, I upped the dose to two 50mg pills last night, per Dr's orders...and woke up at 11:30 am! Not good. I have a call into him to ask if I can stagger the doses. According to his instructions, I'm eventually supposed to take 3 pills at night. I'll be a zombie! lol! And rest is VERY recuperative! I've spent much too much time in hospitals, and always looked forward to getting home where I can actually get some sleep. >after some of the reactions I have had to meds, I know meds affect different >people different ways so I wont say for sure that the Lyrica isnt what >helped you sleep however I do know that " usually " it takes weeks for these meds >to get into your system enough to help and " typically " most people need a >certain amount to do any good.
