So. IV had fibromyalgia since Oct 2021 after an accident at work left me with it,took forever to diagnose blah blah. At that time I was already long awaiting a hip replacement which ground away and was sufficient agony without all this, IV had every tablet going,the celex didn't help a thing, duloxetine made me sweat and nothing else,they also raise occular pressure, that's when happened to find about potential early onset glaucoma. Gabapentin turned me totally mental, and the pregabalin IV just stopped as I get no relief from it whatsoever. Diclofenac wrecked my insides and did not help. My other hip now needs replacing and am getting some relief from meloxicam, but that's helping all my arthritis pains,not the other. I have found three things that have helped me, ear acupuncture to lessen my stress. Infrared sauna followed by cryotherapy chamber which is really helping my bones/joints inflammation i am sick of tablets the four for thyroid and BP are enough I have accepted there is not a pill to help and am currently trying any and everything to keep myself moving and living it makes me miserable the sack of drugs from the chemist every month, I'm like Botham on that advert.

Good morning Sorry to hear all the problems your having I would say ask your doctor about longtec painkillers. They work for me with my fibo all the best.
I'm sick of tablets too, not quite got to gabapentin, but trying allsorts of alternative therapies. I'm interested in where you found out about infared saunas?
