Lyrica

I've only been on lyrica for a couple days, but I have the weirdest thing. I can feel the pains that come, pains that I have dealt with since grade school, they fizzle out. They come, I think about wincing and they fizzle out. I've never felt pain go away. I would ask if this is what it is like to feel normal, but I don't think people without fibromyalgia deal with odd pains minute to minute anyway. Some of them are sharp and quick, some are sharp and long lasting, some are dull and weird but they still take my attention away from what I need it on, those dull ones can be quick or long lasting. If these pains happen often throughout a day then I have sore muscles for several days to come. My whole body feels bruised. It's all so very tiring. But for a couple days now, the pains have been stopped. It's exciting to know what it feels like to have pain go away.

I just hope the doctor can get the insurance company to cover it. We paid for a 15 day supply so I'm not sure what the point is in taking it if I have to stop taking it, but I at least appreciate the lessened painful sensations.
