I am slowly coming off Lyrica and switching to a new medication while simultaneously recovering from an unrelated minor back injury. Since decreasing the Lyrica a few days ago, my back pain has unexpectedly gotten worse and worse. I know that Lyrica is also used to treat some types of pain. Is my back pain being exacerbated by the Lyrica withdrawal? Could this be hindering the healing process? I do not want to develop chronic back issues because Lyrica withdrawal kept me from healing properly. Any information would be helpful. Thank you!
