I have been taking Lyrica for 6 yrs. Everytime I run out or don't take it I end up so sick. I feel like I am covered in fire ants, nasea, headache, sensitive to light & sound.....etc. Unlike most of the sufferers the psych symptoms are not new to me. I have PTSD. The withdraw triggers me and though I have never been suicidal, this withdraw has pushed me there when I have run out of meds in the past. This time my PCP has taken me from 450mg to 200mg per day and I am doing fine. Yesterday I decided to take it down to 100mg and I started getting all the bad feelings and thoughts. I'm so scared that this med will be the death of me so I started back on 200mg today. How will I ever get this poison out of my body??
