Re: Lurker about ready to have a major temper tantrum UPDATE

Thanks so much to all who responded and offered encouragement.

I'm still without Lyrica, and my doctor won't be in the office until

tomorrow, so yeah. Apparently, it was her Medical Assistant that

screwed up, and didn't pass on the forms and refill request to her. I

should have been on top of it, but all this self-advocating just makes

me crazy. I'm not good at it at all. I kind of miss the Lyrica. I was

taking 75 mg. twice a day, and it was helping. The dose at night

combined with 50 mg. of trazodone really helped my sleep. So much so

that I would actually wake up without the horrible stiffness most of the

time.

My back is still not good, but I was able to get my Vicodin refilled, so

that's a big help. I can feel it burn and itch now where it's hurt, so

it's starting to get better. I got after everyone, and they're being

much more helpful. My husband is generally really good at dealing with

my fibro limitations, so I didn't get why he was being so thoughtless

when my back went out. I think he was mostly distracted by the week of

work that piled up for him while he was sick and he just wasn't

thinking, but he's been helping now.

Now it's just waiting game I guess.

Sigh.
