How to do a Lyrica taper?

I am slowly weaning off of Lyrica from 150 mgs twice daily for injury related nerve pain since January. My doctor suggested a 50mg drop every two weeks, which gave me nausea and terrible headaches. I've had it adjusted to a slow drop of 25 mgs. every two weeks. Take it slow. It doesn't matter if it takes longer to finally get off it. It's hard on your system and requires a very slow taper to avoid the side effects. Lyrica did work for me but I definitely won't go on it again.

The first time I tried I did 25mg every few days for maybe a week and it was all good. Later I decided that getting off of it wasn't such a smart mave and I'm still on it.
