Saw Dr. H. yesterday. No more Ativan 2.5 and only 1 Lorazepam in the morning, maybe another one in the afternoon, and then Lyrica before bed time. I can after a week or so, if I don't wake up groggy, take another Lyrica at the start of the day.
I've been off the Ativan, an on half doses of Lorazepam for a while, mostly because I would forget to take it. I was told it would take a few days for the Lyrica to work. Joy.
This morning, my right hand and foot were tingling, and my right hand was shaking. I took one Lorazepam. 45 minutes later, the tingling and tremors stopped.
I'm hoping the Lyrica will put the brakes on the chronic nerve pain I have had since the spinal fusion, and now the knee replacement.
