Lyrica anyone?
Not to keep beating a dead horse BUT Lyrica caused weight gain for me also.
I gained 5 pounds in the first week from fluid retention alone.
As soon as I quit taking it the weight came off.
I worked too hard to get this weight off just to have a med put it back on.
I now take Xanax, Ultram ER, and Percocet (as needed for breakthrough pain)
For depression I was on Cymbalta but it made my vision blur and I was exhausted. I switched to Pristique last month for depression and anxiety and I LOVE it. No weight gain! No drowsiness!
Good Luck finding what works for you. It will be worth it in the end.
