hi roxy

i was taking these before i got told i had fybro amd m.e , i take paracetomol, tramodol and oramorph (think thats how u spell it. its imorphine ) i was on pregablin but found they didnt do anything for me so i asked for the tramodol x

Yes, I took these for Fibro. They can improve sleep quality and also have a muscle relaxant effect. They are usually used for Fibro at very low doses and often at bedtime only, which reduces the risks of dependence that many GPs worry about.

Thank you Lindsey & paula. I am going back to the dr end of the week. So i will be able to change to them. Hug & love to you both. Helen xx

I have been on Clonazepam for about 5 years to help me get to sleep. Their primary use is for Epilepsy. In low doses at bedtime for fibromites it helps reduce the electrical activity in the brain enabaling them to get off to sleep (cos fibromites have busy brains firing off more electrical activity at night than non fibromites). Staying asleep is another matter altogether

You should NOT stop taking this medication suddenly as it can cause seizures. Stopping this drug should be done under the supervision of your GP or specialist.
