    • Close Fibromyalgia

      I have been diagnosed with fibro for over 12 years. This past year I was told the fibro may be the cause of a biotoxin illness, so things keep getting more complicated. I am so sick of feeling badly and thought it was time to connect with others on this!

      Treatments

      Cyclobenzaprine Working / Worked
      Helps at night to releave enough pain so I can get some sleep.
      Cymbalta Somewhat Helpful
      Cymbalta is great for the depression associated with fibro and decreases the pain but not enough. Felt awful when I went off it.
      Lyrica Working / Worked
      Used this a while back before it was Ok'd for Fibro use. Worked well with my hands and may go back on it.
      Neurontin Working / Worked
      Works well for the tingling and hand/foot pain I have struggled with.
      Ultram Working / Worked
      I take this as a PRN for pain. Helps take the edge off.
      Rozerem Working / Worked
      Helps with sleep although I also take Trazadone and Lunesta -- but together I can actually sleep through the night!
    • Close Environmental Allergies
      Type of allergy: Other

      I was diagnosed in Jan. with a neurotoxin in my system which turned out to be toxic mold. The doctors believe this is what causes my fibromyalgia.

      Treatments

      Allergy Shots Working / Worked
      I was getting shots for allergies since the ago of 5. I finally am on a allergy shot holiday and still doing OK.
      Nasonex Working / Worked
      Helps during high allergy season.
      Singulair Working / Worked
      I think it helps but am not honestly sure.
      Zyrtec Working / Worked
      Helps a lot keeping the allergies at bay.
