fibromyalgia too

[JazzElvis1]

Does anyone have fibromyalgia too ? How have you found the meds with this? I still get pain sometimes , was hoping it would all go away !

There are a few doctors that will prescribe low dose stimulants for fibro. It can help with concentration and brain fog for some patients.

I’ve started on 20 mg elvanse, not sure I should go up , but seeing the doctor this week , had it seems a bit of a nerve response but I’m sure this will calm down

“Neurodivergent people are more than twice as likely as the general population to have hypermobile joints and are far more likely to experience pain on a regular basis, according to new research.”

Google hypermobility

I don’t use medication to treat it but have found success with daily foam rolling of the fascia. You can find exercises on YouTube for free. If you want more in-depth information lookup MeltMethod.com

Maintenance with: Pilates, stretching, cardio, weight lifting, daily walking, hot baths with epsom salt - occasional massages, a few visits per month to the chiropractor

This has helped my mother reduce her pain associated with fibromyalgia as well.
