Ok, was recently diagnosed has having 3 different kinds of pain. Working with a new pain mgt doc (lordy help me, he's also from London like my bloke... oy). Have been on neurontin and was ok for a while... has issues trying to ramp up the dosage... I have an issue with sensitivities to meds. Granted, I hate taking any meds. Dr, last week, put me on Lyrica (As Dr. Sam noted). I'm now off neurontin (as of last week) and currently in process of ramping up Lyrica for my pain. Been having some side affects but still too soon as I know it takes a while for my body to adjust to the meds. I also have pain meds (ie: Tramadol, etc) to help when I really need something extra (again, hate taking them... I have a high pain threshold but my pain levels have reached as high as 8-9 on scale).
So, can't tell you if the Lyrica is working as it's far too soon. Neurontin (also check with Captn Deb -- do a "search" here for her posts about Neurontin) did help somewhat for me, but only for a bit....
But, the gin should work well also!
