ya i was off work for two yrs .finally got feeling better so went back to work for 5yrs .now back off have a big flare -up lots of pain ,right hip giving me trouble walking ,heads all over the place .i take toprimate and cymbalta tried lyrica but gained to much weight

Yup I spent the first few yrs studying on me since I had 3 babies to raise. Took breaks at nap time, the whole nine yards from 1995 to 2010. My psychotic sister and her 8 yr old nenance happened getting kicked, punched, thrown down stairs backwards, and went on for 10 months. All my teeth,bones all broken, infection set in their, knee/leg damaged bones and nerves permanent damage, my spine broke 2x, infection in body in antibiotics 4 yrs, hemmoraging under skin 400+ places burst thru pores took 5+ yrs to present, finally stopped, legions healing. I went completely out if control, burning and pain severe, you had no choice you screamed. immunity weak I had shingles,rashes,giant hives,dots all over the body,pneumonia, tumors in intestines grew to -6cm in length,-had surgery. And surgery to remove all teeth,gums ,bones. I couldn't go in public from bleeding out everywhere, severe pain etc. Yup I went in control then declined more each day passed.

Sounds like what I've been told is a flare . N either u gotta wait it out or sometimes steroids help too

I truly wish I had an answer for you. You have been through hell and back. First of all, I hope your sister and her child are far away from you. Fibromyalgia is enough to handle without your other problems. Yesterday and today have been rough on me. I was up six times last night and the pain just did not stop. I will try to get back to you soon. If I don't, it won't be because I don't care,it's just some days I'm hurting too much and I can't take the time to write. Believe me I will get back as soon as I can. You will be in my thoughts. Much love to you and best wishes.

I was never pain free but it used to be just my back and neck until last September it attacked by whole body. My limbs ached and burned, my feet I could hardly walk across my room. I have it somewhat under control now using 600-800 Magnesium. Its the only thing that helped. I tried all the drugs for Fibro and they all made me sucidal. My fatigue is at its worse. I can`t do much anymore and that makes it so frustrating. I am tired all the time. I cannot even work because of depression and brain fog. I sometimes find myself having to google a word that I forgot how to spell. Take Care
