Hi Everyone

After six years on Lyrica I decided the blurry vision and other side effects were not worth the benefits of less nerve pain.

I was taking 300mg twice a day and so I started the process of weaning off the drug with the help of my GP.

I got down to 100mg twice a day and started feeling so unwell, I would break out in sweat for no reason and I couldn't think properly. I tried to push on but after two months I had to go back up to 150mg twice a day and i feel human again.

I plan on waiting six months and then trying again
