Have you found anything to successfully treat fibromyalgia pain?

I have financial limitations, but I've gone a few times when I have severely overdone and everything is tight. Running a garage sale, too long of a hike and other times like that. It put me right, right away. I believe stretches are preventive, but sometimes you just need the quick and now solution. Others I've read go monthly.

@marye2 Ah ha, severely overdoing...it'll get you every time. At Mayo Pain Rehab Center we call that "push/crash cycle". It's never our friend. Avoid at all cost when trying to successfully manage pain. I've learned that lesson many times the hard way, too.

Keep on stretching daily, Mary. The beauty is that it doesn't cost a dime and has so much benefit. As you said, preventative. I enjoy my daily morning stretch routine. It's therapeutic and I really cant get going without it.
