.........so I started cutting back 75 mg a week till I was down to 300 mg and realized it was working good, my pain had just increased..........
Billye,
This is a very good possibility.
Although you could be building a tolerance for the Lyrica,
as any of us can do that with many meds after a while.
I don't remember how long you've been on Lyrica, but since its
only been available since the summer of 2005, it can't be a very long while.
I've been taking it since Sept of 2005 and was at the max of 600 mgs/day,
60 days after starting - and still am lucky to have it work for me.
It took 7 years of (eventually) 4200 mgs/day of Neurontin for me
to build up a tolerance, and had to switch.
