Most of you will probably be aware that our chemist prescribed the wrong dosage of Lyrica, they gave my mom 200mg tablets instead of 75mg tablets, so I was unable to take the tablets for just over 4 days.

When I wasn't taking the Lyrica, I had horrible withdrawal symptoms, I had panic attacks all the time, I shouted at my mom, was sick, couldn't stop crying, couldn't breathe properly, was even more depressed than I normally am etc etc.

I have started taking the Lyrica again and I am fine now.

As anyone else experienced the same symptoms whilst coming off Lyrica??
Thanks for listening
Alison
It seems that I too get very argumentative when I miss or delay a dose. I normally take 300 mgs at 9:00 am, 150 mgs at 3:00 pm and 150 mgs at 9:00 pm. I just thought it was me all this time.....
