Glad to learn there is hope to end of Fibromyalgia sometime in my future. Thank you for responding. I don’t like living in this fog I’ve been in for the past 4 weeks. My family doesn’t like it either as I’ve always been very active.

Wow...that is my goal honestly...to get off all the pills. Sometimes I wonder if I do have fibromyalgia. I never took a pain pill until I was 50 and cysts and fibroids on my uterus caused painful periods and severe pain all over my body. My doctor put me on tramadol and gabapentin and that helped my pain up to when I had a full hysterectomy 3 years ago. I thought my all over pain would be gone after I healed from my surgery but all that changed was no more periods. My all over body pain got worse and my concentration and foggy brain got worse. When I went to my doctor about it, he did a pressure test on me and asked me questions then diagnosed me as having fibro. I honestly was one of those people that rolled her eyes when she heard someone mention they had fibro. But now , at age 55 I wonder is it really that or is my body just so dependent on my pain medications? I am scared to taper off because taking even one less pill a day is causes unbearable pain. So can you give me some advice on how you did it?
