Well, my doctor postponed my foot surgery that was planned for today. He wants me to take this new medicine for nerve pain, Lyrica, for 1 month and then see him again. He is trying to determine how much of the pain is nerve-related.
He said that is not easy to fix with surgery.

I started the med yesterday, and it's making me so sleepy and dizzy. I feel spaced out!

But I got the results of my bloodwork back, and everything turned out ok. The doctor was surprised. She thought it might show that I have arthritis or something else, but I guess all of my problems are just related to my back and foot issues.

Oh yeah, this new med is supposed to cause blurred vision---which I was already having a problem with.

Oh well, I'm hanging in there!
