Yeah, every now and then I leave off a dose of something to see if I really need it and POW!, the neuropathy pain comes back. Boy, would I love to be able to get off my fentanyl patch and Lyrica so I that I wouldn't be sleepy all the time and would have a clearer mind and better memory and vision. Those docs that worry about us being drug seekers....ha....I'd love to give them my drugs if I could. But I need to focus on beign grateful that I have them. The pain without them is too much to bear. An attitude of gratitude is what I need to remember.
