> JostScott had a bad reaction to Lyrica. He's the only person that i know of that had a 'bad response' to this drug. Please don't quit w/out first giving high dose 500-600mgs. of Lyrica a chance-it could be just the right drug for you. I swear by it..I was suicidal before i got to 500 mgs. Low dose made me feel Lousy, i almost quit it at 50mgs t.i.d., thank God i didn't. So please just give it a chance. If you get to the 500mg. mark in 2 divided doses and don't get the energizing feeling, then taper down and go off.
