Brief Answer:
A bad reaction likely.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The sudden symptoms that you started having this morning are likely to be due to a bad reaction to Lyrica. You are taking too many pain killers already. The pain due to the disc prolapse can be alleviated with oral muscle relaxants.
It is best to stop taking Lyrica and consult your orthopedician for oral muscle relaxants. You can do a hot compress o the lower back and apply a local analgesic gel also for temporary relief.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
