I'm only on 150mg a day but like Paula said, I know when I've missed it!

I've had horrific side effects when I was on really high doses.. Now it's not so bad, brain fog - but that could be due to the fibro rather than the meds - it's hard to tell.... I hit withdrawal really soon when I am late for a dose or miss a dose....
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
So the info sheet i was given says it's not addictive so how does that cause withdrawal symptoms if stopped or missed dose?

It is addictive. You have to wean off it slowly, not all doctors acknowledge this. My new pain consultant was horrified when I was told to "just half your dose" from 600mg 2ce a day...
BUT it is very good at doing what it does. Without it I wouldn't have been able to move for pain for years...

It’s not addictive in the way morphine, for instance, is addictive but it does cause discontinuation symptoms
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
Even on only 150mg I was told to come off it very slowly

Thank you everyone for your experience. I'm going to have to weigh up the pros and cons. At the moment we are still on Plan A but it's good to be ready with a decision about Plan B if its needed.

Sounds like a sensible plan lovely.

Cant believe I've been here for over a month now.!!
I do feel a bit better but still not ready for home.
Hopefully we will do an increase in my meds today and see where we go from there. All the staff are pleasant and the ward is nice....but it's not home!
