Nope, the first LCDOUT should take care of the initialisation. For safety sake use a 500mSec-1Sec at the top of your code before the first LCDOUT.

LCDOUT $FE,1 just clear the display.

Be sure you don't use your LCD on analog i/o AND/OR open drain type without using the right method (pull-up, set all I/Os to digital)

As usual, your WHOLE code and PIC# will help.
