Hi , I’m JuJu. I had breast cancer years ago , had 6 months of chemo , and now I have fibromyalgia. I can’t take opiates , tried weed ( my dr was all about it ) but it makes me almost schizophrenic. I can go happily along for days then I have flu like systoms , pain all over , nasal congestion , depression , , Gabapentin is the only thing that helps , but not that effective , so I stay home until it magically disappears . I can’t plan anything because when it raises its ugly head ! I’m down for the count. Does anyone have anything similar ?

@juju. I have fibromyalgia and this is a fibro flare does it exhaust you ,does me cant do anything till it goes away. For my fibro I take extra magnesium everyday I dont know if this is what keeps the flares at bay but haven't had one in awhile good luck Linda
