Close Fibromyalgia

I was diagnosed formally with Fibromyalgia in July of this year (2008); however, I think its been there for a long time just waiting for several stressful events to let it rear its little ugly head. :)

Treatments

Acupuncture Working / Worked

My acupunturist treated me by using methods to detox my body (lungs, liver, kidneys, etc). Still being treated but have noticed IBS symptoms (bloating, constipation) have totally disappeared

Cymbalta Not Working

Did not help; doctor is currently dosing me off the medicine.

Lyrica Not Working

Symptoms were not better, morning pain and stiffness were in fact worse while on Lyrica. Taking Lyrica on an empty stomach left me feeling out-of-touch, and motor skills were slowed

Rozerem Working / Worked

Helps with sleep

Lunesta Working / Worked

helps with sleep sometimes feel no pain the next morning
