My Fybromyalgia pain is worse in the morning and I really have to push myself to get ready for the day/work. I used to be a very active person but now I find since I experience the pain on a daily basis I feel really lazy most days at home. I used to experience flares that would last two to three days maybe two or three times a month but now chronic. Even the thought of doing anything is overwhelming unless it’s due to work and I really have motivate myself to get there. I’m wondering if there’s anything I can do or take to increase my energy and decrease discomfort in the AM? I’m usually feeling better in the late afternoon and evening and can get few daily activities done then like supper, laundry and housework. I’m feeling almost normal at this time most days. I don’t sleep well at all- I have been taking Doxepin before bed for sleep past two weeks which isn’t helping. I’m on my second increased dose and will contact my Dr. - Cymbalta 90mg in the evening for the past month or so and Tramadol 50mg 3 times daily past three years- for back pain as well. I would appreciate any help or ideas of what is helping others here. Thank you.
