I take 1 200 mg of ibuprofen in the morning and one at night as well as 2 mg of hydromorphine every 4 hours which barely makes a dent in my pain levels but its better than nothing. I don't get a high from the opiods and have been able to keep the amount taken stable as increasing didn't decrease the pain and it started stiffening my stomach muscles. I use arnica gel with menthol that I find helps with the fibromyalgia pain in my arms, shoulders, hips, sides of my legs and a little on my back dorsal muscles. Its a natural topical gel that I find helps reduce my pain like some people would feel using Voltaren which does nothing for me.

I find my motorized lazy boy chair is what helps relieve my back pain the most. Its the first time in 6 years that I can sit without having yo suffer excruciating pain. Keeps me stuck in the house but at least it makes my life much more enjoyable with significantly less pain.

I also find doing short guided meditations help with relaxing my body which also helps temporarily reduce pain as well as helps me have a more positive outlook on my life.
