Hi.

I was also on this medication - for like 2 years. I was taking 600mg x3 day. I didn't have the swelling/hives issues. But, I haveto say, don't just stop taking this medication. That's the worst thing you could do. If you see that the side effects are getting better, stay with it. Sometimes it takes a good few months for your issues to stabilize. If not, ween off the same as you went on it - your doctor can guide you.

I just weened off the Neurontin and starting taking Lyrica. Have you guys had good results from it? Boy, I'm in pain. I'm taking 100mg x 3 day. I was told that people have better luck with pain when taking Lyrica.

Boy, I don't know. I'm just barely hanging in there...

Hairdresser, please let us know how you are doing.
