Lyrica Lawsuit (Page 2)

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
Re: Jackie (# 1439)
I have been suffering for rt around 12 yrs from Lyrica and I only took it for a month. It damaged my back to the point where I had to have major surgery. Ruined my teeth, memory loss, searching for words all the time while talking to people. My feet still swell, and I got pulled over and charged with a DWI and went to jail. Tried suicide and still think about it. I've been searching for an Attorney for years to no avail. Contact me if you have an attorney please.
Re: Douglas (# 14)
Just had all my teeth surgerically removed due to Lyrica.
I took lyrica and cymbalta. All I can say is I got severely depressed. Nov. 2016 I woke up in a mental ward, I tried to commit suicide after overdosing on xanax. I was serious about ending my life as these medications drove me crazy.
I wish there was one. I looked and called around because lyrical totally ruined my life. I never had seizures until about 2 weeks of being on Lyrica. I've been arrested in Oklahoma because they thought I was drunk and then on my way home I had a blackout seizure and almost totaled my car. I've been hospitalized due to lyrical a couple of times and my health has gone from a little pain in my lower back to having major back surgery. I know this is from taking Lyrica because I was healthy as a horse before. But I've had so many seizures after taking the drug that I now suffer from the hard the seizures have done to me. Keep me informed of finding a lawsuit please. This drug needs to be taking off the shelves and banned forever.
In 2013 I had back surgery for degenerative disc. Following surgery I had issues with my left leg and was prescribed 600 mg Lyrica twice a day. In May 2014 I experienced a sub arachnoid aneurysm followed by a stroke a week later leaving me paralyzed on my left side. Has anyone had any similar experiences or know of any compensation for the suffering I've endured

I was to the point I was thinking of ways to try to make it look like it was an accident so my daughter and husband at the time could still collect my life insurance. ??
Re: Regulator (# 1452)
See my post at 1447. It gives info on a potential lawyer who may start a lawsuit. But only in the USA right now
Good luck.
Re: Melinda (# 1022)
It destroyed my marriage also. This poison is a mind altering drug! It turned me into someone totally different. I did and said things that I would never done if I were not on this drug. There definitely needs to be a lawsuit against this drug because of so many lives being ruined by taking it.
I would also like to know what attorneys are handling the Lyrica issues that were NOT ADVISED IN SIDE EFFECTS... LIKE IMPOTENCE?

I now have shocks tht go Thur my feet & I hav severe muscle spasms, also my mood has improved but still hav some depression left sometimes worse thn other times... thnk god my libido is back but it doesn't help now because my relationship is now ruined & over...

Hi mate sorry about your lose im on it now or i was stopped now is there any lawsuits going on with this dangerous drug
I had a bad reaction to this lyrica, it did some major damage to me. I had every side effect off of it. I almost died off of this mess. It put me into a cardiac arrest.
For those living in the U.S., I found this online. Not sure if they are going ahead with a lawsuit but it's worth a shot:
"The Schmidt Firm, PLLC is currently accepting Lyrica induced injury cases in all 50 states. If you or somebody you know has been injured, you should contact our lawyers immediately for a free case consultation. To contact our Defective Drug Litigation Group call toll free 24 hours a day at (866) 920-0753."
Good luck and praying for some help for you all.
Hi Hannah's Mum. I am so sorry for your loss and understand the pain you are going through. It's the worst pain imaginable. I lost my husband last year and believe Lyrica contributed to it. {edited for privacy}. I'm happy to discuss more with you. I've lived in Australia for the last 10 yrs but returned home to Ireland after my husband's passing as I was pregnant with twins.
Anyone in Ireland with issues please I was on this awful drug for only a short time and it has been a railroad with many issues back to doctor it had messed up my Endocrine system I have had to attend doctors more times in the last year than I did in the last 40 years
I am from Melbourne, Vic. My daughter suicided 2 months ago and I think lyrica was part of the issue.
Hi All. I am discussing the options with a lawyer in Australia. My husband suddenly passed away at 40 & I am convinced Lyrica contributed to it. Once I know more I'll update. How many people here are from Australia?
Hi I'm Munice, I hear everyone talking about Lyrica lawsuit. I've been taking Lyrica 400 mg a day for about a year. I suffer from back pains( imbulging discs), diabetes, poly arthritis, nerve damage, and I been hurting severely for over a year, from my feet (can barely walk sometimes), hands, hip, neck, shoulder, chest, and legs. My feet and hands swell, I've gained over 50 lbs, my body just aches, I've been taking Lyrica along with lots of other meds, including injections and nothing works. I can't work and it just make me really tired and depressed. Even my eyes get blurry at times. If you all come up with a lawsuit, please inform me. I can't even work, because if I stand too long I swell and my feet turns
I am looking for the same as you . Lyrica destroyed my life in so many ways. Please help. Thank you and i hope that you can find a way to repair what Lyrica did to you
