1st night taking pregabalin

Heya! If your reading this I hope you've had a nice weekend. I managed to be a normal and enjoy a little birthday party to celebrate my 28th. A weekend without the kids - no baby monitors on it was bliss. I was supposed to start on this course of pregabalin on Friday but didn't want to be suffering any potential side affects so made the decision to start it Monday night. So here we are and i took my first one about 20 mins ago. I'm hoping I can start having more pain free days but I worry that this is just masking the actual problem and if the pain is this bad all the time maybe there is still more Endo in me. It makes me sad thinking I'm going to be taking such heavy duty pain killers for the rest of my life. What will happen if this doesn't work? What next?

Let's see what happens with these new pills and maybe this will be what gives me some kind of normality back.
