Rather than take a week off, which seems counterproductive to me, I would drop the weight to something you did a couple weeks ago.

ie.
Week X 135
Week Y 145
Week Z 155-fail

Go back to Week X's weight, then next week add a small increment to that, etc. If you need to, you can go back even further to a lighter weight. The key is to go back to a weight you can handle relatively comfortably and add small increments to it (5lbs or less total)
