As far as I know, lyrica is for epilepsia and peripheral nerves. I had them once for a problem in a leg. I don't think they will pose any problem, unless they interact with other medicaments. After CCSVI you will have to have blood thinners. Ask your doctor about possible interactions.

I suppose it depends on why you are going to take lyrica. I was going to take it for nerve pain from MS but when I started researching the side effects of lyrica, the drug scared me.

But it is personal choice.
