Chinese medicine has helped me. Acupuncture helps quite a bit but when I'm in a flare up of sorts it doesn't quite work as well.

if I read this I would think I was weird, I'm an engineer so logically minded....BUT....
I did not understand I could have some influence on my pain when I was finally referred to a pain centered tai chi course by my pain control nurse, I thought it was just weird Chinese dancing, I was so wrong, its about controlling my muscles the right way, I will be honest it takes years but boy is it worth it. there is real anatomical science behind it learnt over thousands of years. no drugs and it works... THIS ones not another false dawn if you learn how our muscles work...good luck and bless you...

I tried a little yoga. Harder than I thought. I've tried breathing techniques. My next step is therapy.

Yes I've had them I take the buspirone But I do yoga too Yoga is very helpful as it teaches breathing techniques to help w stress

I would have horrible panic attacks! Always when I thought about driving. I would have to bring walmart sacks to panic attack puke in! It was affecting my LIFE! My dr put me on 1 xanax daily. Very low dose! It has been a life saver.
