How to manage

I've 'personally' found a combination of the following works for me;

Codeine

Magnesium

Morphine

Paracetamol

Pregabalin

Oh and FINALLY, like I said, it WORKs for me but it might not work for you!

FINALLY

Leaving Work and going on BENEFITS.

Best of luck for whatever might help for you, and anybody else who reads this post/reply.

i find i can reduce meds pregablin and amitriptylene when feeling better

magnesium oil spray is good at night

i swim once a week and it has never made me feel worse only better 

and i try to walk every day, even if its painful as it lifts my mood

give yourself a break and time to pick up if you feel ill, you may  need to cancel things!

I have been exactly the same as you, however I started to learn to embrace this illness because you change.

You will learn to pace yourself and you’ll know when you need to rest. You’ve  just got to listen to your body.. why not try chair yoga I found that also helpful. I personally don’t plan a head because I don’t know how I’m going to be.. however Im grateful because ive learned a lot from this illness and now realise that I have burnt myself out.

Hope this helps.

I take lots of supplements-double the dosage, I take magnesium in a glass of water every morning also mag supplements. Vitamin d, glucosamine-stopped them and realised they were actually working, Osteo  Panadol 2 x 3 times  a day..the only prescribed med I take and I’ve been taking it over 20 years and never had it increased is called Endep, it depends who makes it and where you live as to what it’scalled. The ingredient is  Amithriplyne

...Amithriptilyne is  the only med I take for Fibro...gives me a great pain free sleep..- no pain..still feel a tad drowsy waking up...but that sleep is what makes this Fibro manageable for me..only get flare ups now..once  it was just constant  pain almost everywhere and sleepless nights..I take it 7pm before bed..it really does work wonders ( for me..that is,) we are all very different..I take 25 mg...never had it increased either ...started on 50mg but I was like a zombie...all the next day..dropped to 10mg for a while-still not too good but 25 mg is perfect for me..it is actually an antidepressant that works excellent for pain..it numbs the nerve ends and stops the pain from jumping on to the next nerve..hence a very painful body...the antidepressant is probably a lil bonus as most of get depressed from time to time..yes it does knock me out to give me that great sleep which is just sooo needed, to be able to deal with the pain etc the next day..but once I'm up and dressed..I'm fine.....Its great...22 years down the track..have to be woken up in the morning..but once up and about I'm just fine.....it's like a miracle med for me... it takes a while to settle in. ..also, please remember that less stress is the key to Fibro....be blessed..have a lovely day..:-) xxx🐻🐻
