New PCP, New Hope

I went to a new Primary Care Physician today and laid everything out for him. I explained my situation and told him that I need him to be supportive of me and the decision I made for my future regarding surgery. I explained what my last PCP did, or didn't do and he said that he will help me manage my pain until surgery and that there will be a day that surgery is done and I won't even look back, will only be looking forward to the future. I hope he is right. I am in better spirits, I am going to try to change my meds around a little. I am going off the Lyrica, because I have already gained 10-15lbs in 2 months and I going on Topamax and a steriod medicine and also a Vicodin/Tylenol mix. I will start those tomorrow. I feel hope with this doctor and think he will be by my side in all this.
