He asked me how I dealt with the pain due to my severe muscular atrophy. I decided to try pain medicine and was put on 75mg/day lyrica and 10mg
lorcet 3x/day.
I was always hesitant to try pain medication; many members of my family who also have this disease, have been on various pain meds for years. I have seen misuse, withdrawal and addiction. I also have always had issues with pain meds.
