Fibromyalgia Support Group
You're not alone in your pain. Fibromyalgia is a condition that can be difficult to diagnose and manage. If you're trying to cope with pain throughout your body, sleep problems, general fatigue, or other common fibromyalgia symptoms, you're in the right place. The community is here for you to talk about therapies and share your challenges.
I'm hoping you start to feel better soon. Hugs~~~
Now, I hate to say this, and I'm not saying it's the right thing to do but, if you're REALLY desperate and depending on what meds you're taking (don't remember from your profile...just noticed the Klonipin), is it possible for you (again be VERY sure) to have a glass, or even half a glass of wine??
Again, I don't advocate drinking with meds, especially some of them, but maybe just a little wine to take the edge off. Not sure if this is a good idea for you or even practical. But I've done half a glass if I'm really badly off and can't get help.
I try to avoid drinking at all. Actually haven't had to use this "method" in over a year. But it worked to relax me a bit. Avoid caffeine. Try chamomile tea...and try to get in touch with the doc if you can.
Please update us on how you're doing...... I'll check in later..

I am on two different SSRI's for meds..the combo helps a great deal...but does not rid them completley,
I found deep breathing helps me a great deal. I sit strainght in a chair...empty my mind..and concentrate on the sound of my breathing. I breathe in a large breath through my nose...and then slowly let it out through my mouth. I do this several times until I feel better...and the attack is over. DO NOT LET IT TAKE OVER YOUR LIFE!! I did and it is hell. Ifeel so much better now...and breathing si something you do everyday and can do anywhere ! I know I could not do it without the meds. I tried going off and they came back with a vengence...so I have relaized that life with meds are my life...or I ll have NO life. Take ahold of your strength and fight with everything you have.
Manyhugs ..
