Hi Everyone,
Been four weeks now since last took Lyrica. However, still getting neck ,thoracic and face spasms , ( these symptoms only started while taking Lyrica ) My Neuropathic pain suddenly returned but not too bad now. The spasms I believe ? are called Dystonia and I read that this is caused by disruption of the neurotransmitters. ? Can anyone that has reached the other side relate to this . My Doc is in denial that there is any effects from Lyrica and so looks at me as some oddity. Does not do much for your confidence. Regards Nick |

How did you make it through the sweating??? I've attempted to stop Lyrica, even got down to less than 25mg per day, but the SWEATING! How long will it last? I was soaked, drenched, after a shower I couldn't even dry off.
I'm back on 400 mg per day due to pain intensity, but dream of a slimmer life without Lyrica. I'm buying it overseas now, it's cheaper, and that is making it harder to put it down as well. It uded up most of my medicare Rx benefits and I was in the donut hoe by June. At $240 a month it made sense to stop taking it, but then found it online from India, $130 a month for 400mg per day. Same price as my usual copay for it.
