Lyrica , what's going on ?
 

Hi Everyone,
Am in withdrawal from Lyrica and my neck has gone into spasm. Woke up a few days ago with burning pain and tenderness on side of head and sub occipitals tender also along with triggers in upper traps. Is this Occipital neuralgia ?Does anyone recognise this as in their experience. Don't have headaches.


Many Thanks


Nick

Wow, that sounds painful !:( I hope you have gained some relief from this since you posted. I took Lyrica only one time (1 dose) and got a migraine, so I never took it again. Have you spoken with your physician? Maybe you need another medication to ease your symptoms while you're withdrawing from Lyrica?
