Hi!! I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia for about 18 years. I’ve learned there’s not too much that helps although I have my medical marijuana card which is really helpful when I’m in a bad pain flare up. I use thc/cbd lotions plus flower (I have a dry herb vape) and edibles. I also use Lazarus Naturals for cbd softgels/capsules and CBD RSO for sleep (they offer a 50% discount program for veterans or those who are struggling financially (SNAP, EBT, stuff like that). If you choose to check out cannabis I would check out some indica flower or vapes, it’s more for sleep and relaxation and pain. Sativa is more uplifting and can cause anxiety but sativas can be effective for pain too, it just depends on your body chemistry.

I’m also on Lyrica 225 twice a day. I’m not sure that it helps all that much but I’m committed at this point haha (I have withdrawal symptoms if I don’t take it).

I also use lab tested quality Kratom. I use mainly red veins ( for pain) with some green (for mood boost, pain). It’s very important to use lab tested vendors and not to take too much (I take 2.75 grams every 4 to 6 hours). It’s important to drink lots of water and don’t mix it with other substances (alcohol, etc). It’s important to research the plant and understand that if you take it often, you will probably have some uncomfortable symptoms if you stop suddenly, just like any other medication you would take on a daily basis. If you want unbiased information about the plant, I would recommend using “DuckDuckGo” instead of google. Also if you google “Reddit vendors of Kratom” you’ll find a sub with a lot of helpful information. There are risks with taking Kratom but for me, the benefits much outweigh the risks. If you are prone to seizures I would recommend not taking it as it can lower your seizure threshold. I had tried to post a big long comment about Kratom in a different post but it wouldn’t post, probably because it was too long haha but if you want more information, message me.

hello llcc880~
so sorry to hear of your trials....pain sucks and fibro pain can be so very illusive as well as debilitating...my heart goes out to all that suffer from this . My dear husband had fibro for 20+ years...the only thing that helped him was to be on a protocol of Amitriptyline...he took in am and pm...also did oxy when the pain was too much to deal with. He never got addicted to the oxy. ..but it certainly did assist in holding back the severe symptoms..when needed. Emotions, we found was a great indicator of how his day would be. Staying grateful and of assistance to others was his way of getting out of his own pain, in helping others.. I hope this helps you all.
