@daisy17 ldn did NOTHING for me. I'll take the 5mg oral pill I already have prescription for.
@daisy17 One post from you gives me more info than I’ve gotten in a year from my doc (I just switched for that reason)! I take Zanaflex at night for muscle pain and have for years. Flexoril has never been mentioned as an option for my severe fibromyalgia pain. My neurosurgeon prescribed it for back pain until I could have surgery but I’m going to ask my new doctor what she thinks, as well as Naltrexone, which I’ve never even heard of! Thank you so much.😊
@daisy17 My dr at mayo said the same thing about tonmya. He gave me 5mg flexeril to take at night since I have $0 generics. It helps a lot.
@daisy17
I think you mean sublingual which is under the tongue. Subliminal is by brain waves. So it’s an old drug to look new.
@daiseys17
You summed that up perfectly! I take 5mg. of cyclobenzaprine at night when needed. Like you it helps me sleep when the pain is bad. My insurance wouldn't even cover Tonmya . I don't blame them. They do however cover cyclobenzaprine, which as you said is a lot cheaper. When I first saw Tonmya I thought it was something new that could help me but realized it wasn't. Another money making move.
@daisy17 Thank you for the info. I have been on that med a number of years ago. It just wasn’t enough for me.
@daisy17
Were you on opioids before this?
