Hi all,

I went to see my internist today. Haven't seen her since I went to the rheumy.

I told her the rheumy said I had fibro and I had to live with it nothing to be

done. She just shook her head and said, no, you don't just live with it. Asked

her about Lyrica..she said she has had good luck with her patients who tried it.

Got a whole bottle of freebies..who doesn't love that. I'm to start taking one

at night for 7 days then twice a day. I took my first magic pill a little while

ago, God I hope it helps. Is anyone on it that it has actually helped? How long

before you noticed any change? I did get a script for Vicodin. She knows I won't

abuse it, I told her I had to take 2 Darvocets sometimes and she said that isn't

good I'm just ruining my liver, I said I know, that's why I'm telling you. I

didn't take it further as in if the Lyrica doesn't work. We shall see. She had a

good attitude though didn't blow me off, and was very supportive. I've been a

wreck worrying about this appointment. Wish me luck, kids.

Hugs,

/Mi
