    • Close Fibromyalgia

      I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 6 years ago. I have a wonderful support system with family & friends,( 2 family members with fibro, & 2 friends with fibro), but I appreciate any info & support in regards to my condition.

      Treatments

      Aqua Therapy Working / Worked
      It warms & relaxes my muscles. I have a regular bathtub. Standing under a warm shower helps too. I've become sensitive to hot water.
      Cyclobenzaprine Somewhat Helpful
      It worked for awhile, until my body became accustomed to it.
      Heat Working / Worked
      Warms & relaxes me. I have to keep it on the lowest setting, otherwise it brings on a hotflash. (smile)
      Ultram Somewhat Helpful
      I tried it for a year. I went back to Naproxin.
