My Dr. and I aren't sure if the Lyrica is causing my itching because when I increase it the itching stops for a week or so. But the itching always returns. We don't know if my itching is part of my possible SFN. But when I started the Lyrica I had no itching, just Erythromelalgia in my feet.

I have seen people talk about itching when coming off Lyrica but my Dr. doesn't believe that can be a withdrawl symptom. But whenever I try to wean off Lyrica the itching is unbearable. So I'm just trying to find out if anyone here has weaned off Lyrica, had itching with it, and how long it lasted before the itching stops. I've seen some say the itching lasts up to a month or more.

Now we are considering putting me on Topamax so I can wean off Lyrica. Its all so difficult to do.
