Fibromyalgia -- Need help on how to handle severe pain

Hi Ripley, I can take 1/2-1 4 mg. of a Tizanidine at bedtime. I am ultra sensitive to medicine and I find a 1/2 is all I need. It helps me to sleep better. It works quicker than Flexeril for me. I do not have to take it every night. The Plaquenil for lupus has been a tremendous blessing to me as well for pain. I only take 100 mg....1/2 of a 200 mg tablet as the 200 mg is too much and causes severe stomach cramping and diarrhea. I take the Plaquenil in the morning with food. I hope one of these works for you. Bless you as I know what Fibro pain is like.
Please keep me posted. Praying....

When you were on Flexeril, what dose were you taking? Do you ever need the Tizanidine during the day for pain? Thank you.
