Hello, me yet again.
The uro increased my dose to 75mg from 25mg. Sh didnt even realize i was already on the 25mg in the morning. So i look at the new bottle and it says take at bedtime.
well, i thought i would continue to take it during the day. BIG mistake. This is day 2 and im all wacked out. I was fine before i took it.
I feel slooooow, blurry vision, slight dizziness....i was fine on the 25mg no side affects.
its so bad tonite, i cant remember if i took my abx, so looks like i wont be taking that tonite.
this is becoming one big living nightmare......im on so many drugs i dont know what is lyme and what is a drug reaction. Am i herxing or is it a reaction to one of the non lyme drugs.
Im on lyrica 75mg singulair difflucan clonzepam cedax

My daughter was on Lyrice for about two days. She started have serious shortness of breath. According the info that came with the prescription from the pharmacy, that was a sign of allergy to the medication. I'd suggest reading that drug info real carefully, in light of whatever symptoms you're having.

I'm on Lyrica 300 mgs/day -- (100 x 3) -- I felt really "drunk" for loss of a better description the first couple times I took it, but then my body adapted and I can function just fine on it now--
We're all different... I've never been very sensitive to drugs or prone to side effects....
Hope the woozies go away for you soon!
