That is a load of Neurontin but do not despair, that drug was useless for my PHN (post-herpetic neuralgia, excruciating!) A few comments to hopefully ease your mind: I started taking Lyrica for PHN on a Wednesday afternoon and had my last attack Friday evening. It takes a while to build up in one's system. Second, he's on a pediatric dose. I would ask why. I went to a pain specialist weighing roughly 100 pounds and was told that 75 mgs was a kiddie dose. Has he been given a schedule to increase? I would ask them to at least double the Lyrica. I do not exaggerate when I tell you that I was contemplating suicide before I started Lyrica. It saved my life and I so hope it does the trick for your husband. Hugs to you both.
