Ok, so I went to my PCM today at the VA and told her about the extremely painful areas on my skin that feel like nerve pain but are on the surface only. And that everything that comes into contact with my skin feels like it's being shredded be shards of glass. She said that it is my nerves and it is the fibromyalgia. So she is starting me on neurontin and will later put me on lyrica. I'm already on effexor and don't know the effects of these other two drugs. She said that the neurontin will treat that painful shredding sensation I get.Also, I asked her about finding a physical therapist that is fibromyalgia friendly and she said she is looking into it and will get back to me. I also found out that I may be getting an IUD put in because my gynie wants me off the patch. I told them they should just tie my freakin tubes! I don't want kids, at least not of my own. They said that they won't since I have not had any. whatever!! Well I've had a freakin head ache all day, so i'm gonna take some fverfew and lay down. hope everyone's day is well and God bless!
