@ecmoandrrt Thank you for the information. I have some questions:
1). Did you have trouble getting the Vicodin prescription? Most doctors are reluctant to prescribe it.
2). Do you take the cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) throughout the day?
3). Have you tried low-dose naltrexone? I believe it's helped me, if not I'm in some kind of remission after dealing with painful flares since 2021, after a bout of Covid triggered my fibromyalgia.
I'm sleeping okay now, but at night I still take magnesium glycinate 300mg, melatonin 2mg and sometimes 5mg cyclobenzaprine. I was taking a sleep gummy but don't need it now.
Good luck to you.

1. My Drs understood I needed pain relief. They could see it in front of them. When I had what I call my "lava" and in horrific pain. And my BP through the roof. They wanted more then once to admit me. At first my Endocrinologist thought I had NETS. Nope. My Rheumatologist found out I have severe RA and Fibro. Neuro said I don't have dementia and do have Fibro fog. My Cardio/CT surgeon absolutely said I need narcotics! So I have a pain Dr. and is fabulous.
2. Yes TID. It does what its supposed to do and it doesn't make me sleep.
3. No. Can't take that with narcotics.
I'm still coming to terms that this shit is never going away. I had planned to work till 68 but had to retire at 66.

(In my case I was in healthcare for over 35 years. ECMO Specialist Perfusion/Registered Respiratory Therapist. Speciality NICU/PICU Level IV, CCU, ICU, ER.
I know a LOT of Drs, PA, NNP, RNs etc.
And I've had Asthma my whole life.
Because of my background I know who is the best and I got them. Is that fair? Of course not.
That's why if you knew me I would find the best Drs. for you.)
