Welcome home from the hospital. I hope you continue to recover well at

home.

Thanks Jeanne.

I'm taking it one day at a time. Tonight is my first 150 mg lyrica.

Have been having breakthrough pain all day *but* I think some of it

was the inactivity of being in a hospital bed too. Not good for us

hurters!

Hospital beds are the absolute worst for comfort. When I had my abdominal

surgeries these past few years, I had more back pain than incision pain.

And what do they offer as an alternative? A rock hard recliner. Whoopy!
