Fibromyalgia pain: Let's connect

I was diagnosed with fibro in 2006 and have been taking Lyrica, tramadol, and buproprion (an anti-anxiety med I was told helps the other meds work) since then. That protocol was life-changing for me. No more "bugs crawling" or stabbing pain, and the tramadol helped with the fibro pain, and I could sleep. Because of new issues this year, I have changed from Lyrica to Gabapentin, which seems to cover the fibro problems as well as the Lyrica had.
I wish you all good luck in your journeys to find the right doctors (I went to a rheumatologist) and a combination of meds to help you.

I bumped off of the harsh pain meds. But yes Gabapentin helps and Lyrica, that's after I got my nerve ablations and injections done. I feel so good not relying on opioids. I have 1 more nerve ablation to do and I tell you it has changed my life. No Pain. I used to be bed ridden. Not no more. Hope your feeling good or better.
