Getting worse

I have posted before about this but my symptoms have changed. I am taken Lyrica but its not helping. Its happening all day every day now.
I have severe pain in my legs every day and  I struggle to make it up the last few steps of my stairs. I get tingling toes and sore feet. Tingling on my face and tongue for hours every day. I feel faint or unaware. My eyes keep going blurry. I feel hungover in the mornings but I dont drink. I feel weak and tired. I have a vibration in my legs when I lie down. My face twitches. I dont worry about anything so why is this happening? I am waiting to see a Neuro. What can I ask my doc for instead of Lyrica as I feel my body is getting sorer every day. Thanks for any advice.

There are so many meds out there.  You need to talk to your dr to try and figure out which one is right for you.  It might take awhile for you find a med that works for you and it is all trial and error at first.  I am in the same boat as you with trying to find one that works.  Seeing the neuro is a good thing.  Hopefully everything will come back fine and you can start getting better.  You may want to consider speaking with a therapist.  I know that is a big step but it really does help to have someone that is trained to help you to talk too.  Good luck and I hope you start feeling better soon.
