Lyrica Lawsuit (Page 45) (Top voted first)

Does anyone know if there is an ongoing lawsuit against the company who puts out Lyrica? I am a mess from it. Do we have a leg to stand on when it comes to the side effects they found out from people like us? I am a long termer. I have been taking 900 mg since 2005. Is there anyone representing us? Thank you

Hi Mary , so good to see you are still fighting , keep up the good work , we are in Australia and need a global resolution against Lyrica , not just a local one , have you had any more improvement in your health since stopping Lyrica ?, did Lyrica permanently impair your memory and concentration , this is what it did to my son as well as cause a very severe anxiety disorder , good luck for 2013.

Nick, even if we could get something going in the usa and australia about the effects and dangers of lyrica, how could we all get together. We need a blog of our own to talk and exchange ideas, and maybe someone could come up with a brillant plan to sue the makers of lyrica. Unless something is done by someone who knows the right people, all we will be doing is crying on each others internet shoulders. I wish this site did not censure and edit any addresses especially about this vile poisionous drug called lyrica. But I think before any class action suits can happen is some people have to die like in the '80s when zomax killed women, who were taking it for pain, died from anaphylatic shock because they developed a severe allergy to the drug. I was one of the lucky ones, since I was a nurse, I knew what was happening to me and my family doctor was only one block from me. D boy I wish you could help us bu they censured your address, and nck I wish there was something we could do, but I think this is a lost cause uless some one famous or in the government or pulic eye, nothing will be done and there will be more victims of lyrica. :'(

Thanks for your reply Mary you are right , i am not good at setting things up on the internet but as you said we need a central location where we can unite , make the world aware of what Lyrica really does and gain recognition and compensation .i have a xxxxx@xxx {edited for privacy}, so put things together ,you are a smart one.

Possibly nick, they say they want to protect us from people who would use the addresses to send spam, viruses, worms, or trojan horses. Some of my replies about lyrica have been bloocked also. That is why I wish we had code of sorts. Some times you have to read between the lines on certain blogs if they get through about lyrica. Kim did I do not know if this will get through.

I do not know if this will get through. Sprint acts up sometimes. But {edited for privacy} had trouble with google about lyrica. And could not read between lines like in reading. I was acting like drunk in pa @ rhmc . I was a respiratory therapist who worked @ night.

I'm all for people being compensated if they've been harmed by Lyrica, but please don't try to pull it off the market. Some of us are actually doing well with it. It's the only drug that has been able to take care of my trigeminal neuralgia. And I have it BAD.

Maybe the problem is not so much the drug, but the docs prescribing it and not listening to patients when they report problems.

all I know now is that a LOT of ambulance chasers are standing by. I need at least 40 people for a lawyer to smack Pfizer in NY with a class action. Im here but I see they yanked my email address out of my letter above. My Doctor took me off it, and when I told him I was still at 50mg a day; he seemed pissed! I told him I felt AWFUL if I just stopped! I felt like taking three 75mg tabs and shoving them down his throat! But they don't kow what to do for us! he said it's like a miracle for some people. I said "who? for the person with epilepsy?". Maybe he was having a bad day cause he is a nice guy. I told him, NO MORE SSRI's ( anti depressants ) and no more pills. I am on a anti-candita diet to cure myself of thi fibro. I met a girl at my Wife's work who even submitted her feeses and it was contaminated w yeast! She did a ANTI-CANDITA diet and has claimed to cure herself of fibro. These diet's are all over the web. I boil 2 egs in the am and have yeast free bread from whole foods. No beer, booze, smokes.... no more juices, sugar, man I can go on and on. BUT; I can have chicken. No rice though, no potatoes. EXCERSIZE helpe me guys like you would not believe. I lived in the gym before I got hurt! I burned my biceps and triceps and rode a bike real easy for 20 minutes and I felt better. NOW my arms stopped burning and the fibro set back in. Raid bug killer is the worse for me or when someone is frying food! It sets off my fibro.

I have a Dr buddy in SC that is SO smart around this BS of how the drug companies protect himself. he even told me that these pain injections in the spine are a scam. Ever hear a pain Dr say THAT? this guy is so honest. He was a GC ( General contractor ) who fell OFF a roof! He was on his belly in wicked pain for 6 months. He had no hope. His back was that bad. Then ONE doctor fixed him w an MRI finding a disc had wedged into the nerve. he was so inspired of how all these Dr's did nothing and one did something that he went to medical scholl. He is now my dr. in SC. IF you google SOBOXIN, Jed's name appears first in SC.

I don't know if anyone has come across a doctor who has warned their patient about the dangers of lyrica before or after prescribing it. And I didn't come across one who figured out that lyrica was killing me until 2 yrs into it and he warns all of his patients now. I have been off of lyrica he told me today is 3 yrs and I still have side effects and will always have them.

For those saying lyrica shouldn't be taken off of the market don't realize the doctors prescribing it do not warn patients of the side effects nor do they monitor patients for side effects. xxxxxxxxx {edited for privacy} and wd my doctors never figured out what was happening to me was from the drug ever and they were specialists I looked it up and finally realized it was killing me.

Hi Renne , 3 years post Lyrica and you still have side effects , that is awfull , my son still suffers after 2.5 years post Lyrica and am still trying to come to terms that this is probably permanent brain damage caused by Lyrica . Usually the human body has healed what it is going to heal within 3 months , after that , what you have is likely permanent .

Nick, thank you for thinking I am smart, unfortunately I do not have the smarts or financies to create another website for all off us. Lyrica needs it own web site, but even if one of us did creat one just for lyrica, how could we tell anyone here how to get to it. You saw the message the people running this site said. Someone, who knows how these sites run, will have to do it and somehow post a link for all of us to go to. We need smeone who knows how to network and create a site. Also those of you who do not want lyrica off the market there are other drugs with less side effects than lyrica.. tramadol helps pain tylenol three is also good, then you have the muscle relaxants. In otherwords they are there are many other drugs and other pain management treatments you can use for lyrica. How about a tens unit. I am an ex-nurse, these doctors get kickbacks from drug companies @ the expense of your suffering. They will prescribe a brand drug, with no generic equivalent, just for the kickbacks.. okay maybe the drug helps you, but there may be a generic out there that can do the same thing, or some other method of treating your pain, but the doctors either do not know of it or else they want the money kickbacks give them. They pulled darvocet off the market, even thouh it has been around almost as long as tylenol. It had a lot less side effects as lyrica. Now, all those people who were using it for pain relief were sqewed, forgive spelling, they had to find new pain relivers. Some doctors prescribed lyrica. Big, big mistake. There are drugs on the market are cheaper and better and they work just as wel,. I say again, pull lyrica off the market before it kills someone, some already have severe impairments from this drug called lyric. LET THE MAJORITY RULE!!!!!!:O
