Hi: I am a new poster and in reading , I came to the conclusion that for my wife's withdrawal symptoms i would try starting her back on ! Low and behold 2 hours 80% improvement symptoms greatly reduced. Doctor wanted to treat her for some other infection because he could not believe that the symptoms she was experiencing could be from Lyrica. It was almost a magical way of seeing what was the cause of the horrible symptoms she was having. going back on will identify if you are sick or suffering from withdrawal. I think a taper of much longer time is needed. I am going to go for 10% reduction every 10 days and see how it goes. The doctor said a week or so is good!
