Default Lyrica tolerance/dosage

I'm taking 300 mg. of Lyrica a day. I started at 150 mg. and increased by 25 mg. a week over a few months. Thing is, I've never gotten more than a weeks relief from it at a time. That is why I've had to increase it each week. Now I'm at 300 mg. and after one week at that dosage, I again need to increase it. I know I can only go to 600 mg. At that rate, I only have 3 months left before I can't increase dosage anymore.

This worries me greatly. I hope the pain Dr. I'm supposed to see next month will have a better plan for me.

Has anyone found that they built a tolerance so quickly to Lyrica? My Dr. acts like he has never see this before, am I the only one?
