Yes indeed, I started taking several different medications at the same time as my doc was trying to resolve my nerve and severe back pain years after surgery. When I started the Lyrica I started smoking because it stressed me out to no end, I then started suboxone not long ago and am feeling the need to smoke three times as I use to ten years ago. I had quit for almost ten years, ouch... dont smoke if you havent yet. I spend over $100 a month, which is a fridge full of groceries or a night out to dinner. Shame I feel though, damnit why did I start again?

Thank you for answering, I feel I'm trying to find something to relieve the anxious feeling I'm having. I feel better knowing this has happened to someone else.
