Post-op, 20 weeks

This past week has shown some improvement with the nerve pain I have been feeling. The Lyrica is definately helping with the burning in my feet and the pain in my knees and ankles has subsided some. The Lyrica is a screwy drug from my point of view. If I am inactive after taking it, I fall asleep within an hour for about an hour after taking it. I'm glad my PM Doctor is starting me on a light dosage to see if I can get some relief. With that being said, I am decreasing the Percoset again. My Therapist believes that I need to keep up my efforts with PT to keep the nerves moving so the scar tissue doesn't cause any permanent damage. All in all, it appears I'm moving forward again which is good news for me.
