There is specific medication for fibromyalgia. The pain comes from nerve endings and the lumps under the skin in the muscle are common especially in severe cases. Talk to a physician --preferably a rheumatologist who specializes in FM.

I have posted this before, probably in another thread. From the Mayo web site:

Antidepressants. Duloxetine (Cymbalta) and milnacipran (Savella) may help ease the pain and fatigue associated with fibromyalgia. Your doctor may prescribe amitriptyline or the muscle relaxant cyclobenzaprine to help promote sleep.

Anti-seizure drugs. Medications designed to treat epilepsy are often useful in reducing certain types of pain. Gabapentin (Neurontin) is sometimes helpful in reducing fibromyalgia symptoms, while pregabalin (Lyrica) was the first drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat fibromyalgia.

Hope this helps!
