I was doing so good since I started taking it.  This last week has been worse though.  But tonight, I start taking the Lyrica at 150mg. 2xday.  I'm hoping it will work as well as theother one did.  I was only on 75mg. 2xday.  I've been feeling more depressed since I've been hurting.  And since that happened, it feels like the ritilin no longer helps give me any energy either.  I am weaning down on the oxycontin ER.  I know I won't ever be totally without it, but if I'm not having to take as much of it, that will be good enough for me.  My doctor appointment isn't until the end of April.  My daughter told me I should ask the doctor to change from ritilin, to aderall.  She said it will help me focus much better.  The ADHD and ADD runs in most of our family members.  I'm trying to get an appointment with her phycotherapist.  I have a good feeling about the stronger Lyrica, and going to her at the same time, maybe I can start feeling like my old self again before long.  I think I'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel.  I do know it may not work, but I'm trying to think possitive, even though I know what a let down it will be if it doesn't work.  But at least if I'm seeing a doctor for depression already, I feel I will be able to handle it better with her help.  And now I have my daughters help too.  That's been great being able to start bonding with her again after all these years.
