@merpreb One per day. I had started taking 1/2 of the 5 mg to try to get some relief for a longer period of time. It works okay enough and better than nothing. I have to go back every 3 months for a urine screen. If he increases it to 2/day I have to go every 2 months for a urine screen. He told me to breathe and continue with my exercises. Is what it is. I may ask for a referral to the orthopedic center to see if there are any other options. Also having scoliosis and fibro rather complicates things. I was told at one place that I am too old for surgery to straighten my spine. Not sure I would want surgery for fear of ending up in worse shape. Just discouraged right now. More pain meds may allow me to do more but may do more harm in the long run. Insurance also presents limitations. Will do more thinking and referral requests.
