Fibromyalgia pain: Let's connect

You sound like a candidate for Genesight testing. Information at info@assurexhealth.com. It's a gene test that tells you what drugs will work for you. Depression, anxiety drugs, stimulants, ie Wellbutrin etal. Also what pain drugs will work based on your genes. You ask them for a list of docs close to you who preform this service and go to one who does, they take a cheek swab and in about 2 weeks you have your results back. It alerts you to drug interactions you could have as well as what drugs in 3 or 4 classes will work for you based on how you metabolize them. It's new and it's nothing short of a miracle for folks who need meds like Cymbalta and Wellbutrin. Quit guessing because that's all you and your doc are doing and find out what will work for you. That website is info@assurexhealth.com. get there number and call them and ask them to email you a list of docs near you. Doctors can register for free and all it takes for them is a fifteen minute phone call. If your doc doesn't do it see one who does. Get your info and take it back to the doctor you have and like. When they see the info, they will come around. Good luck, do it!!!

Well all fibro folks cold weather coming here which results in more fibro symptoms. Also other issues. I hear the term chronic pain so much that it sounds trivial to even mention it. Yes, I hurt all of the time and miss out on so much of life. 🙁

@Parus I agree as we have a cold spell and Im with you ,hurt all over this seems to be our fibro life .Blanket on

I’ve gotten some relief from walking in a indoor heated pool in a nearby gym (membership free with my Medicare AARP/United Health Plan). It enables easier movement because the water helps with gravity, and the coolness (not too cool), helps with inflammation. Afterwards I soak in the hot spa. At home I take a lot of hot baths when I’m having flares … It’s the best thing and really the only thing that really provides me with relief when it’s really bad. Hot pads help, too

Heat packs...they help so much. Pineapple honestly helps with the joint pain. Malic acid and magnesium supplements, warm baths before bed, tumeric and ginger in my smoothies help with inflammation, and on days that I can function a little walking helps..just don't push it.

@grandmar Ronnie,
The link took me to google mail main page. Can to see if there is another link?
