I am glad to hear that naltrexone works for you. I was in the original naltrexone study at Stanford and it works just the opposite on me than it did everyone else. I guess you can say I’m one of a kind.😄

I have been prescribed Lyrica, Cymbalta, gabapentin, e-gabalin (I forget the spelling), and a variety of other drugs, none of which worked, some of which made me much sicker (Cymbalta, which my PCP now lists in my chart as an allergen for me). I wish I'd find the targeted medication for fibromyalgia because all these others are broader-scope drugs that can cause quite damaging effects. We call them "side," but they're frontal.
