Hi.
My fibromyalgia is getting worse as well. My skin hurts to the touch, fatigue is really intense, I sleep like 3-4 hours a night, and I just feel overall body pain from head to toe. I also have had excruciating lower back pain for 30 years, knee arthritis 5 years, and now a bulging disc causing numbness to legs, burning to legs, leg cramps and stabbing pain to my legs. I have tried Cyclobenzaprine, Lyrica and Celebrex . Those 3 medications really helped me UNTIL I began experiencing some scary side effects. ( memory loss, confusion, worse anxiety, )
I had to stop taking them because I felt like I was having an out of body experience. Frightening! It saddens me because I thought…FINALLY!!! This medication combo is helping me. But unfortunately the side effects were too severe for me.
My point is, this does not happen to everyone. Maybe these meds will help you with no side effects. I really pray this info on these 3 meds help you or anyone reading this. 🙏

@christinadv23 The newest medicine out is Tonmya. I finally got a prescription for it, then my cardiologist said I cannot take it due to my congestive heart failure. I was so disappointed. The first drug for fibro in 15 years, and I cant take it. Bummer. Maybe you can.
