Hi, Daniella. I went to a new doc today -- an anesthesiologists who specilizes in pain management. She has been written up in 2 magazines as Atlanta's best doc in the field. She recommended a trial of gradually increasing my Lyrica up to 300 mg. twice a day. Then, If that doesn't work, trying the spinal cord stimulator. She was very nice and listened to all my questions and gave me good answers. I am going to go along with this, I think. Hopefully I will be able to take more Lyrica without increasing side effects and I won't have to face the spinal cord stimulator, but.....

I go back to her in 28 days to let her know how the Lyrica works out. I know you are facing a decision on the spinal cord stim. thing, too. If I learn an more about it I will let you know.
