Guest guest Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 Hi Caitlin, Currently I am on 50MG 2 x per day. I think that is a fairly low dose and expect my Rheumy to up it to 75MG 2 x per day. I have been on it for a month now and can say that I " think " it is helping. I am in a high pain flare stage right now so it is hard to say how much it is is helping right now or now. One thing I am curious about is the percentag or amount of people who are still working on this list. If I took all the oxycodon (along with the Morphine and Lyrica my Dr. expects me to, along with my fibro Fog, I would n't be able to work at the capacity I do know. I am a Computer Support Analyst. Thanks for the welcome Catlin. I hope you do well on the Lyrica. How much did your dr. put you on? Caitlin Kennedy wrote: , I'm glad you've come out of lurkdom and decided to post. I'm sure you have just as much support, knowledge and compassion as anyone else. Have you noticed if the Lyrica is helping much? Just curious...recently started myself. Sincerely, Caitlin wroteI can honestly say that there are many days the I couldn't make it through without the support of this list. Like I said this is my intro but I have been lurker and receiving your support for a while now. Words can't express my thanks for this group. I look forward to learning, sharing and supporting along with this group. --------------------------------- Yahoo! Mail Use Photomail to share photos without annoying attachments. Quote
Guest guest Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 , I am on 75 mg (Lyrica) at night, which is low dose, but anything else, I would be to tired to function so I have to slowly increase as I get used to it. I'm going through a really stressful time right now, so not sure how much it is helping either. I work full time. I can take very low doses of Percocet or higher doses of Hydrocodone and do just fine. Anything beyond that, and I am like you, I could not work. I am really sensative to meds though and get tired very easily. I work in a library, so not much stress involved.
