Just wondering if I can pick up some older scripts.

I was talking 75mg Lyrica.
Now I'm on 150mg Lyrica.

But...I still have 5 repeats of the 75s which seem to be a waste..

I don't want to bed "red flaged" or even the hairiest of suspicion raised..

Help?

I know they require government ID to buy Lyrica with a prescription here so it is stored in a database somewhere.

Thank-you SorryShaped for your answer. I was thinking of going to a remote phama for major wins...I can't help it, I just need it so I don't feel like this.

Even reading through my question brings me into addict like behavior.

Darn it

I'd hoped you'd recognize that with a little encouragement in the right direction

Well now I'm taking the higher dose and I'm going through them like candy.

I managed to eat one box (56 caps) of 150mg Lyrica since I first posted.

The thing is, I'm not getting any more pain relief than taking the 75mg caps.

I will be attending a pain management thingy on Monday Morning, but they're just going to press me to go on a lower dose....

GAD through the roof now..

Higher doses of Lyrica caused a friend of mine to have massively higher anxiety. He stopped it because of that and it just didn't help with phantom pains.
I have chronic pain too, but successfully went all-natural on that one. Pain meds never stopped the pain, just inebriated me or made me not care that I hurt.

Over use of Lyrica can cause seizures

Yeah it's a concern seiing I have two sisters with epilepsy. But I'm using less these days. Also they make me feel hungry and tired lately on lowered dose. Until I loose my bananas and try to get off my face again.
