As a fibro sufferrer of over 5 years I know what you are going through!. The best thing I have found is massage therapy!. I go every 2 weeks and it helps relieve some pain and the headaches!. Other than that I take Robaxacet at night which helps alleviate some pain and it also causes drowsiness which helps with the sleep problems!. Get the sleeping under control! I ended up having to bite the bullet and take some prescription sleeping pills just to get that under control but now I am off them which is great and able to get a decent sleep most nights!. Once you can get a decent sleep then you will begin to hurt less because when you are tired the fibro hurts more!. Try the massage and try a hot tub just to get some temporary relief!. Good luck and take care!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Hi! I was diagnosed about 1 yr ago!. I'm on Cymbalta!. I was on Lyrica and it didn't help much but I've heard several people say they liked it!. Lyrica made me gain weight which didn't help my condition!. I also go to physical therapy 2 times a week and it helps a little!. They teach me stretches, a few strengthening exercises and do massage!. They also have a hydro-bed which is very nice!. The main thing I have learned that helps is to get as much rest as you can!. I have 2 kids so it's not easy but it's essential!. I wear comfy shoes and try to stay somewhat active but don't push myself too hard or I'll flare!. My rheumatologist suggested yoga!. I hope some of this helps!. I know it's frustrating but just know you aren't alone!.
