I wonder if I spoke too soon or jinxed myself,...2 days ago, the old pain has returned with a vengeance. Darn (sigh). Maybe my body is adjusting to well to the lyrica hence dampening it's effects. I'm increasing my dosage to see if that works. I do still feel sure it was the lyrica that gave me the pain free interval I had, the timing and degree of pain freeness (for so long too) was to extreme to have simply been a natural recission.

9/22/09 -Dr B opened me up to find a staph infection was eating my vertebrae causing ADR subsidence. Had to remove all 3 ADR's and convert to 3 level fusion. Mostly pain free 2 weeks post op.
9/20/10 - I think I jinxed myself. As soon as I told dr b and dr Sullivan I was doing well (on 6/1/10) I tanked and have experienced the return of pain. My neuro says the new pain is at t4.
