Your legs and fibromyalgia

I have chronic leg pain. I can’t walk very far before the pain starts. It also just starts up when sitting too. I have edema in my lower legs, ankles and feet. Varicose rope-like veins all the way up my right leg. I think the left one is heading the same way as my right leg. I have a lot of pain in my right knee which had reconstructive surgery. My left knee had torn meniscus and torn ACL. The meniscus was repaired but I have a lot of pain there. Also pain behind knee. I take Eliquis to prevent blood clots. Sorry to go on and on but the pain is debilitating.
For Fibro I take Cynbalta and Nortriptyline. I don’t think it’s working. Fatigue is huge. Pain in right arm comes and goes.
I have no answers for you. I don’t have adequate medical care. Does anyone know what works to relieve pain?

After 26 years, I don’t take any of meds talked about. I tried almost all and didn’t feel any better, sometimes worse. I take a 1/2 Norco when I can’t handle the pain or want to go somewhere. I have to really want to go and take the Norco VERY sparingly.
