I am on neurontin for neuropathy and lyrica (pregabalin) for fibromyalgia. both are causing weight gain rapidly. what should i do ?

Ask re: alternatives: If your current medications are associated w unwanted side fx, you should discuss your concerns w your doc. Regular exercise is assoc with reduced severity of FM pain. You may also want to look at acetyl-l-carnitine. It is a supplement w many research papers suggesting benefit for neuropathy. Also, an Italian study found it effective at reducing FM pain.
