What medications are you using for fibromyalgia? Relief??
Question:
Answers:
i personally don't have fibromayalgia but i know a thing or two about pain...there is a young lady whom i work with and she has fibromyalgia really bad...she takes percocets 10 mg 3 or 4 times a day...i take percocet on a regular basis for my back and when she came to me explaining her situation i couldn't believe how much pain she was in...Because she approached me about maybe getting some percocet from me i was a little concerned that she might have a problem more than the fibromyaliga itself so i looked it up on the Internet..i told her "No" that i couldn't spare any that i take all my meds for me...but when i looked it up on the Internet it said that the leading cause for fibromyalgia was not getting a good nights rest and that amitryptilene was the best medication to take because not only does it act as a anti-depressant but it helps you sleep at night...it kinda changes your perspective on pain in your brain...i actual take it at bedtime to help me sleep and it works for my pain as well...so good luck and I hope this helps and go to webmd.com or aolhealth.com that's where i get most of my information from and i hope that you feel better.
