Hello, I noticed in a thread that you mentioned you take pain medication stronger than oxy. Is it okay if I ask what it is? I'm currently non 20mg of oxy a day (tapered down from 40mg because of side effects) and I'm wanting to talk to my doctor about alternatives with other pain medicine.

My doctor never brought it up. I wasnt until my dad told me of his recent diagnosis that made me think that I may have it too. I literally have all the same symptoms. It was easy for him to get the diagnosis since he's in the VA and is a disabled vet. every single test, blood test, MRO, CT scan...

Tell me what you guys think, and let me know if what I have may be fibro, thanks! Also, please keep in mind that all symptoms have been reoccurring for at least 10 years, most symptoms happened everyday: 1. Sharp pain in my right shoulder blade (feels like there has been a knot in my shoulder...

I withdrawal from the moment I wake up in the morning. I shiver, I can barely move, my stomach is in knots, my head is pounding. it's normal. Basically it's your body's response to "we need more".

Lord do I know how you feel. I lost my job from being so sick and all my mother wants to know is whether or not I've been looking for a new job. I'm a nurse and my symptoms didn't start until I began nursing school. Now I'm to the point where I'm so sick I can no longer work (I'm getting EDD...

Tharper, What does the Savella work best for? Is it for nerve pain, joint pain?

I have been on Gabapentin since 2012, 900mg per day. It does absolutely nothing for me. Not for the pain, muscle spasms, or my TS (Tourette's). I have a new PCP now and I'm hoping that I can get prescribed an actual pain killer and not these anti-depressant-esque "maskers" that do jack shit...

Hello, so I haven't received my diagnosis yet. However I have been incredibly sick for the past 4 years. I am to the point where just getting dressed to go to the grocery store puts me into a state of exhaustion. And swimming, walking or hanging out with friends puts me out of commission for...
