I was recently hospitalized after having severe side effects of Lyrica taken for my neuropathy. Has anyone else had serious side effects of this drug? It was traumatizing.

Lyrica gave me unwanted thoughts and suicidal ideation. I think it's in the same group as gabapentin. I've been on that for 20 years. The withdrawal is like nothing I've ever experienced before and I am a recovering drug addict. I've never been able to successfully stop taking it, but at this point, my pain has progressed and I don't want narcotics. 😥

I take it and have recently been to the emergency room and now you have me wondering 🧐
I took it and it worked but it bothered my eyesight badly. Not a common side effect

I did ✋ ! Mixed with some of my other medications for pain and anxiety at the time, I became Extremely manic. I did a lot of stupid shit while I was manic but man did I get shit done. I was hospitalized twice. Once for 6 days and once for 8 days. It’s a scary drug. I still take it altho I’ve changed almost all my other medications to avoid the mania the best I can.

Hi Scoutie. Did you wean off or go cold turkey? I'm just curious. I've not had any issues other than the extreme pain when I miss a day.
Withdrawal from the Lyrica is super bad for me.
The only problems I have had with lyrica is the extreme amount of pain I go through if I miss a day.
I have very severe symptoms if I miss a dose or it doesn't get filled on time.
