Have you tried alternative medicine? My chiropractor recommended some OTC medicines. They didn't really help me, but I understand they are very helpful to some. Also, what about acupuncture? I am getting ready to try that because I'm tired of hurting, too, and I've only officially had this lousy disease for 1 year. Also, anyone out there, what is your experience with Prednisone? I've just been put on it for a sinus infection, and tonight I'm in so much pain I just want to cry. I'm trying to determine if it's the medicine, or the sudden cold snap. Any thoughts on this are appreciated. Hang in there Fibro-sufferer... don't give up hope. We're all with you!
