      Cymbalta Somewhat Helpful
      Cant say it helped with thepain,so much,but it did seem to help with my emotional wellbeing.Started gaining too much weight,so I went off.

      Didnt seem to help me.Tried for several months.
      Heat Working / Worked
      Helps to releive my sore muscles.
      Ibuprofen Somewhat Helpful
      Take it 3 times daily.I guess it helps somewhat.Constantly have to take Aleve along with the Ibuprofen.I know not to do it very oftenbut sometimes the pain is so severeI do what is necessary.
      Lyrica Working / Worked
      Worked,but I had swelling of my tongue and lips.It was a no-go.

      Did nothing for the pain.
      Robaxin Working / Worked
      Seems to help relaax the muscles in my upper back and legs.Soemtimes makes me sleepy.
      Ultram Working / Worked
      Seems to be helping,atleast on some days.On other days,I hurt so much ,nothing helps.
      Walking Working / Worked
      Seems to make me feel betteriin many waysphysicallyemotionallyand mentally. Knowing I did something good for myselfbut I think the oxygen to my muscles helps them feel betterand I sleep much better when I walk.
      Topamax Working / Worked
      Helps with the pain better than any of the other meds I have taken. I still take the Ultram and Ibuprofen.I dont take the Ultram the 4 times2 pills a day as prescribed anymore with the topomaxas I dont need it. I hate taking all these medsbut I do know from past experience that Topomax does work for my pain soI am willing to take it. Last time I took itthoughI did have hair lossso this time I am taking Biotin and ZIncas Ive read those supplements can help prevent that.
