My name is Nikki, I am a new to this. I have just recently been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia secondary to my Chronic Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have had PTSD for 6 years now and have been suffering with all Fibromyalgia signs and symptoms since then but I have just been passed from pillar to post as no one knew what was causing my pain. Eventually I seen a consultant that knew straight away what was wrong.
With my PTSD I have been on Lyrica for 2 years at maximum does of 300mg twice a day and Citalopram once a day, therefore I have been put on a different tablet to help with the aches and pains.
