Lindkaye, How did you start taking the Lyrica? DId you gradually go up or start on a high dose? If you gradually went up I would go back off the same way. But I would talk to my doctor about changing you to something else. There are others meds out there that people use in place of Lyrica. Lyrica didnt work at all for me so I take Topamax. Others take Neurontin (gabapentin). There are other choices. I am sorry you have been diagnosed with MS too. Its got to be so difficult. Dont feel bad about not having this under control yet. Its a day to day thing for alot of us. Good luck & if you do this without your doctor be careful.
Hugs, Denny
