I have had spinal surgery for scoliosis and another for hardware removal. Both in my 30’s. Diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic pain within a few years after that. I’m 64 now. My regime includes working with someone who is trained in myofascial release, hydrocodone, gabapentin, effexor, trazadone, beta blocker with migraine meds, ice and an infrared heating pad, which works deeper than regular heat. Within this framework I am able to sleep, walk almost every day, cook, shop and socialize. That being said, there are also many days that are completely lost due to pain. Diet plays a role. No doubt sugar ups the pain level throughout my body. So, after many years of trying many things, this wholistic approach works best for me. There are a lot of pain management methods out there. Keep trying different things so you can find what best works for you. Take care and good luck!
