Your doc should have given you a titration schedule to cut back on the neurontin and increase the lyrica gradually over a period of 1-2 weeks-dependent on how much you have been taking in the past.
It amazes me that a doctor hasn't bothered to keep up with proper changeover/switch procedures. You cannot just stop one and take the other.
This could be dangerous!

My primary doctor said the same thing after I called him over the weekend. So I am now taking 150mg lyrica twice a day and my neurontin until the lyrica kicks in I guess. I just seem to be in more pain, I am so frustrated with all of this. by what you said if he reduced the neurtontin I swear the pain would be unbearable.
