I started on 100mg x3 gabapentin and then worked my way up to 300mg x3 daily. Once I got to 300mg I became so damn stupid. So then I told my pain mgt doc and she almost fell out of her seating laughing by the way I told her I’m dumb but then she wanted to see if Lyrica would be any better. Got on 75mg x3 and I’m still very stupid.

I never remember anything and forget words mid sentence or what I’m even talking about.

Anyone else have this struggle also?

I can’t remember (lol) the exact situations I was in but I’ve basically said that exact same thing you would. I’m glad Lyrica is working better for you
