One thing I have come to realize is that when you are in constant pain and taaking pain medications everyday it lowers your resolve. I have been on Norco 10 mg 4-5 times a da y and Lyrica 4 tablets a day along with Zoloft 200mg. I hurt and I just didnt care. As of today I have lost 51 lbs and feel so much better. I have cut my Lyrica in half and only take 1-2 pain pills daily. My fibromyalgia is so much better. You will feel so much better too and it will all be worth the effort.
