> Yes welcome to babble but you say you were on lyrica found it helpful for a year was your klonopin dose still stable then? Or were you tappering? I'm a bit confused. Let us know what pdoc has said. Phillipa
Thanks Phillipa. I had been stable on both Lyrica and Klonopin for about a year (also just Kono a yr prior). It was great, maybe because of the two together, I don't know. But I got the idea I didn't want to be 'dependent' on Klonopin (i.e. Lyrica had a better profile) so I started tappering off in .125 mg steps a week. I did that for 4 weeks and got slammed with the withdrawal which doesnt seem to be going away even with incraesing the Klono dose. Scary stuff.
