Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

[newmania]

I'm 47 yrs old, stage III follicular lymphoma patient, completing my 3rd round of RCVP (Rituxan, Cytoxan, Vincristine and Prednisone) treatment. My peripheral neuropathy drives me pretty nuts (evidently relatively common side-effect of Vincristine) and my wife did some research on a drug, Lyrica, for use to reduce the neuropathy My oncologist had never prescribed Lyrica before (usually prescribes Neurontin) but agreed it might be a good choice. I started my first dose of Lyrica tonight, and will eventually work up to 4/day. Does anyone have any experience with this drug in treatment for their neuropathy?
