lyrica

I,m on 300mg lyrica having gone up from 150mg and feel really ill on it. Its as much as I can do is to lie on the settee, I feel out of it and the anxiey isnt much better. My shrink is away til the end of next week, When I told him I felt ill on 150mg he upped it to 300mg. Feel like stopping it all together but afraid to do it without shrinks advice. What would you do

Could you go to your doctor and get advice of them ?

I dont think th4y would interfere with the shrinks prescription as I'm under them for treatment
But thanks for the reply

Joy, I wouldn't stop them without shrink's advice because they can cause withdrawals. It does take several weeks for the med to settle but if they're doing you no good perhaps your doc will think of an alternative - although I think you've tried a lot of them already.

Hope you sort it out soon anyway.
