Horrible leg pain with fibromyalgia

I have started to have horrible leg pain also. I am not overweight. It is both legs but my right leg is worse. I’ve been tested for PAD and do not have that. It seems it is progression of my Fibromyalgia symptoms .They only thing I found that helps me are leg air pumps available on Amazon . I’ve tried all topical treatments—biofreeze, and multiple pain creams. They used to help the pain but now they don’t do a thing for it. Hope this helps

I've read that leg air pumps help. For me, a daily walk is a must to reduce misery at night. I do leg edema massages (upu tube) periodically when it wakes me up. Hamstring stretches and clamshell stretches, piriformis stretches help. Pressing on the most painful area of leg to stop spasms and lidocaine patch with splint helps. For long term sitting or standing, compression socks really help - even the cheaper ones from Walmart. I have not found that the meds for nerve pain, like Lyrica, help. I have started THC/CBD 1:2 tincture under tongue is also helpful. Magnesium spray is something I have not tried yet.
