Very slow, but a pharmacologist I talked to said that this might be a good way to try. I am not a medical person, and it is only one person's viewpoint. Bottom line, were you successful?

Hi Jenny Sue...sorry it took so long to answer...have not been on this forum for awhile. I did manage to get off the Lyrica and was off many weeks and then my seizures started up again, so I went back on( it was the beginning of a weekend and my doc was not around and I did not want to do ER). I am still struggling and plan to get off again after the holidays, I don't want to be so ill during that time.
How are you doing? Wel, I hope.
