Today is day 2 of the lyrica. Yesterday went okay. It kinda brought on the fog! Darn it! Hopefully this is just a temporary side effect of it...hope, hope! I really hate trying new drugs cuz of the side effects. It really did lessen my pain. That is a first in several months. Nothing was working! I think after awhile you do develope a kind of resistance to meds you have taken for awhile. Maybe, I just needed a change. I remember when I first started taking tramadol, it worked very well. After a year or so it quit working. That was when my doc switched me to percocet.  It worked too, for awhile. Then I had to start adding ibuprofen to it to get any relief. Now,nothing was working to break up this pain in my legs and lower back. So, I am hopeful this will work. Hope whoever reads this is having a great day aithout much pain. Soft-n-gentle hugs to you all.
