I have Lupus and Fibro along with Interstitial Cystitis and Osteoarthristis. I'm 72 years old and I've been at this since 1987 believe it or not. I'm always looking for answers and have tried many drugs and things. Stress is a crusher and as you age your body is not kind. I currently take Gabapentin along with my Lupus and arthritis meds. They help but honestly I deal a lot lately with degenerative disc disease in my back. Fibro pain is pretty much always there. I can tell you from experience that you have to manage yourself. Rest and stress relief and move. Over the years I have found that PT in a warm water therapy pool is the absolute best. You can usually find them at your YMCA's. You can go on-line and find easy exercises to do in the water and even water walking is so good for you. These pools are usually 90 degrees and feel amazing. My Rheumatologist recommended it to me years ago. I would give it a try for some pain relief. Some of your Y's even have arthritis classes that are helpful. Y's are fairly inexpensive and have a lot to offer.
