Fellow suffers;
I can now report on getting a flu shot.
So far, it is not good. It is the fifth day and the base pain level, the
level of pain experienced all the time without any additional loads, has
increased to the extent that even the Lyrica is no longer able to contain
it. My body is in a constant state of nerve pain and physical anxiety. I
have increased the dosage of both Lyrica and Gabapentin. Hopefully, this is
not a new normal; but if it is, then I have made a big mistake in getting a
flu shot.
Thus, unless you expect to be circulating around many people, and many new
people with whom you have not previously spent much time, then, I don't
recommend it. But living in New York City and taking the subway and other
forms of public transportation, and having to use hand-holds all over the
City, I thought it prudent to get the flu shot. It may still be the right
move, but at this reckoning has come at a high cost, that of being in a
distracting level of pain all the time now, just as I was during the early
days of the disease.
