auntnanny, I didn't have time to stay the extra 3 weeks to go though the program at Mayo for Fibromyalgia. I tried Lyrica but didn't work for me, I now take Cymbalta which I don't think helps either.
The drug I now take for my fibro is Naltrexone 4.5 mg. In much bigger doses it's used to help take people down that are addicted to hard drugs. It helps more than anything I've tried and that's a lot. The most help I get is just know what is going to make me hurt and not overdoing. I'm wondering if this is part of my fatigue too.

Fibromyalgia and Costochondritis
I have had these for years…..now that I cough to huff..my costochondritis is always flaring…..it hurts badly and starts my fibromyalgia going……causing extreme fatigue and body pain.
Does anyone here with MAC experience this chain of events too? I have had fibro for 30 years and it’s never been this bad……….I want to exercise, And be active to help myself and this is getting in the way. I am going to tell NJH about this when I go there..any thoughts anyone on this?
