@sandytoes14 @summertime4 I feel with both of you I’m on I’m on lyrics 75mg morning and 75 mg noon plus 150 mg evening, cymbalta and oxynocom 40mg morning and 40mg night plus oxynorm 20 mg 4 times a day and ultracet 20 mg 4 times a day.. I’ve been keeping a pain log the effect of each meditation in order to cut on those that aren’t helping..I’ve decided to do that on my own and I found out only the opioids are helping with the pain so slowly I cut all other medications. When I went back to my doctor for my 3 months review he was chocked that I did it on my own. My principal was, why should I keep poisoning my body with chemicals that aren’t helping. I suffer from fibromyalgia and osteoporosis plus bowl syndrome and I had ovarian cancer... I learned that it’s important to listen to your body and trust me no one knows better than you what is working and what’s not. I feel with both of you and I’m sharing this to say our doctors do their best to help us but we have to be strong and say this isn’t working their must be another way. I stayed quiet for 5 years but for the last 3 months at least I saved my body harmful chemicals and I’ve started taking marijuana to help with the pain and anxiety it made a huge difference. I hope this might be helpful and I pray that your pain gets better as I spend most of my days in bed but when I get a good day ( few hours with tolerant pain) I make the best of it and I enjoy and celebrate every minute of it..like now 😊💞

Thank you for writing about your experience. I agree with you and am trying to navigate my meds now to remove something. I'm always afraid to do so as what if it's a mistake. But, I suppose you don't know until you try.
