Red face Lyrica Withdrawal Syndrome

I'm back on my regular Lyrica dose (400 mg per day). My withdrawal pain wasn't any different than fibromyalgia pain, with a couple of different effects. I was reducing because i lost 80 pounds and I'm reducing on all my meds. Not my Dr's decision, we decided together.
I've already reduced two psychotropic drugs with no problem and they're supposed to be the worst. Lyrica has been a godsend for me and I stopped reducing my dose because it wasn't worth it for now. I've already talked to the Dr.s office and I'm going to go on to my next planned reduction after I recover from again the fibro setback.

Just to tell everyone Lyrica can be great , I would have been a wreck without it. I will get my dosage down. I've read a lot of smart things here that will help next time. I'm just going to work on other drug reductions and then go back and take my time with Lyrica. Hope that helps someone! dusty
