YES! I feel that way today. Everything hurts so bad. I don't have any suggestions about what you can take but I would call your Doctor and or Pharmacist and see if there is something over the counter that might help a little bit that will not cause you to be drowsy. I hope your day goes by fast. :-)

That is a tough one. I feel like I've been hit by a train nearly every day of my life and I'm getting sick of seeing that train coming! I have been on Norco for years for chronic pain and I finally had to take my pain medication while I was working up until I couldn't work any longer. I would start out with just a half a pill to try and take the edge off because it would interfere with my work if I didn't. My body got so use to the medication that I stopped realizing I was even taking anything. However, we are all different, our bodies all act differently with medication, so maybe see if you can handle just a little to get through the worse of your day. I would experiment at home first though. And disregard all of this if your job is related to heavy equipment, driving, etc. I definitely wouldn't take Flexeril, I would be down for the count!!

I'm a stay mom of two boys. I got up with some energy for maybe three hour. Then I crash like a plain. Of course now with a migraine. Hope one day maybe something will work.

I honestly don't know how any of you can work...especially without pain meds. I was disabled for PTSD before my diagnosis for fibro, and I really don't think I could work even with my Norco and fentanyl patch. I give kudos to those of you who can work....I would love to.
