Whoa Lyrica Whoa!

I went to the doctor yesterday for more help as always and in most cases I am disappointed with the care that I receive and no I am not able to just get a new doctor as I receive coverage through a county hospital. My doctor gave me some samples of Lyrica, and I was just so happy that he had them. So anyway I started taking them right away. So far between the med I have for my headaches and then Lyrica I have been sleeping so much hehe. It is fine, as I do manage to get things done in one form or another.

Fibromyalgia is a difficult disease to tackle though but I am going to hang in there the best that I can.

Are You in Pain Today?

I have had this question asked of me by many others at times I wonder if they ever have listened to word that I have told them, or read the websites and pamphlets that I have given them? I believe that there is truly a learning curve when it comes having a basic compassion and understanding of others. I remember one old friend of mine, and I say old as I am not sure if he is my friend anymore as I have not heard from him in months. So he would always ask me everytime that we talked, "Are you in pain today?" Well with Fibromyalgia more than likely there will be pain on a daily basis at most. It has been a constant battle for myself for over 8 years now. I have been in pain every single day of my life for the last 8 years. To ask if I am in pain today is hurtful and quite stupid if you ask me. I would never ask someone who is suffering through pain if they are in pain today, the better question would be, "How are feeling today? or do you feel a little better today?" Anyway is there anyone out there that understands how I feel or has battled with something difficult as chronic pain that no one else can see or feel but you? Please do leave me a comment.
