I Was Given Lyrica For Treatment Of A Pinched Nerve

I was given Lyrica for treatment of a pinched nerve at the C-5 and 6. I took 50mg for 5 days twice a day, On the 5th day I was to start taking it 3 times a day. I did and it really set me on my butt. I could barely function and got worse as the day progressed. I became very nauseated and sweaty, that was yesterday and today I have not taken any. I had a similar reaction to gralise. I think it has to do with interaction to other meds I am currently taking
