      was just taken off this medication... as with all depression, anxiety, etc. medications... they may work for a while and then just stop, if medications for something else is changed, they sometimes have to change what you are taking so that they do not work against each other. It is a long hard road...

      to seek help and offer help to those in need. Living with the daily problems of fibro.

      Treatments

      Duragesic Patch Somewhat Helpful
      does not help for as long as intended to help... very short relief and from only certain spots, when your entilre body is hurting, you can't plaster yourself with patches!! LOL
      Heat Somewhat Helpful
      Again, when your entire body is in pain you can't make a heating pad or water bottle cover your entire body... and it does not last long...
