I was diagnosed with fibro in February 2015. I was also diagnosed with severe anxiety and a couple other things. I currently take Cymbalta 90mg, Flexeril 10mg, Mobic 15mg, and Ambian 10mg. Ambian does not in any way help me sleep. My panic attacks and constant body pain keep me awake no matter...

I've been dealing with chronic pain increasingly over the last two years. (I think longer, but I really started noticing it a couple of years ago.) I had my first appointment with a rheumatologist and he said I have fibromyalgia, and he thinks I also have an autoimmune condition. He ordered a...

I am in serious pain that doctors dont seem to understand tramadol and cymbalta do not work, I am 25y old M so i understand them being hesitant to prescribe anything else but the pain is affecting me non stop every day. I had taken norco that i had from my wisdom teeth being pulled and it helped...

Does anyone else have problems taking medication to help with FM ? My doctor is being brilliant, we have tried various drugs but he says my tolerance for drugs has been very heightened and everything we have tried leaves me with a very hung over feeling at best, so now I'm on amitripyln but in...

I went last week to see a new doctor. He x-rayed both my shoulders and my neck. He said the surgeon who did my surgery did an excellent job and he couldn't have done it any better. He said I have arthritis in my neck and shoulders. He thinks it's because I tend to slouch to much. He is...

OK, so here is a little story of what I have stumbled upon, and it probably won't work for everyone, but I imagine some... Last week my neighbor wanted to borrow my folding table. I couldn't find her number to call her to tell her to pick it up, so I decided I would bring it over. Granted, the...

Just joining the group. Have been battling with Fibro since at least 2003. Became allergic to Lyrica 3 years ago after being diagnosed with CML and starting to take a chemotherapy pill daily. Unable to tolerate Selliva. Looking for support and a good doctor in the Louisville, KY area that...

Well I'm off to see a new doctor today. He is an orthopedic surgeon. The surgeon who did my shoulder replacement moved to New York. I have been having the most unbearable pain in both my arms and shoulders so I wonder if the pain is related to the surgery or not. I was in physical therapy...

Hi! I just wanted to say hi! I'm new to the group. I can relate to some of the posts. I just lost a friend because partly she didn't want to be supportive and then got verbally abusive so I had to let her go. The problem is she was my best friend, and I have problems going out and meeting new...

My wife's coward of a GP just told her she "can't" prescribe her meds anymore. I think from my research it's more like "won't". She said my wife needs to get them from a Pain Management doctor. My wife has been on the same meds, oxycodone and fleceril, and the same dosage for 10 years. It's...
