I've had fibromyalgia for 40 years and cannot take the meds for it, they don't work or I have terrible reactions including loss of vision. I can take an old remedy (low dose antibiotic daily) and 4 X T3 each day. That only keeps the pain at a lesser level. Once a month my physiotherapist does dry needling at the worst spots. It also never takes away the pain but makes it a little more bearable.
