I am truly thankful that we have a variety of things to work with. just read where possibly next year we will have hydrocodone without acetaminophen in it. it will have more hydrocodone but without the liver damage.

I also had difficulty going on Lyrica, but I hung in there and continued with it because the pain under my skin all over my body gave me no choice. Before Lyrica, I could not sleep or work; I felt as though I were being fried with high amperages of electricity. I could only just lay there in awful pain. And since I had broken my back in an industrial accident which bent me backwards until I couldn't see below my chest, I have adjusted what I consider to be painful. The Lyrica killed the pain. As for getting off it, why would I do that? Its addiction is a mute point for me, since living pain-free is itself addictive; so that I would become immediately addicted to whatever removes this awful pain.
