> I do feel much better today--like a mild flu. A script finally came through, and I'll talk to psych about titrating. So right now I'm waiting for the Lyrica to kick in and hopefully for the symptoms to abate.

> Klein, who knew there'd be withdrawal? At least I know I'm not insane. Is metamine Namanda? I'll look it up. Thanks for your experience!Weird, I posted an answer but I guess it didn't stick.
Anyway, yeah, memantine is Namenda. It helped me a lot. Any magnesium salt with high bioavailability (magnesium citrate, magnesium glycinate, NOT mg oxide though) should help.
Also, keep in mind that your withdrawal might be non-eventful if you taper slowly. My withdrawal was a nightmare cos I was taking a very high dose and quit cold turkey, and I'm guessing that's the case for a lot of people who complain about Lyrica withdrawal.
KEep us posted, I'm glad you're feeling better =)
