@jennmoh3 Have you considered looking into attending a Pain Rehabilitation Clinic? Since fibro is a condition without a cure, it is important to learn how to live with it.

Pain Rehab is different to Pain Management in that it acknowledges that the pain is a long-term or permanent part of you life, then teaches you coping strategies for dealing with pain, fatigue, depression, exacerbations, etc.

Mayo offers an in-patient version:

Other places also have outpatient models available, you find them through your primary care provider.

Have you ever considered trying it?
