So a friend recommended taking the supplement melatonin to help with sleep. Has anyone else tried this? Does it have any drug interactions?

Hi everyone I found out I was pregnant 2 weeks ago, I really worried about how I’m going to deal with the pregnancy. I came of all medication once I found out and I’ve been in pain since, not sleeping and just feeling exhausted. I know pregnancy in general makes you feel like crap but some days I’ve been in tears with the pain! Just wanted to see how others who have had a pregnancy with Fibro have coped.
Many thanks xx

I'm still waiting for my neurologist to make a diagnosis, currently she is just considering this as a likely dx for my symptoms. I know at my next appt if she decides this fits she is going to recommend Lyrica as the treatment. I would like to have some information before I just agree to take another drug. Already talking one for pain and another one for tremors and muscle spasms. Does anyone have experience with this medication?
Do weighted blankets help with the restless leg syndrome side of fibromyalgia? Has anyone here tried one, and if so which brand is best?
I've been finding my restless legs getting worse. The sensation is mainly under my knees. It feels like they're on fire but also pins and needles, and the nerves just build until I have to shake my legs. If I don't, the pressure just keeps building till its unbearable, but if I do shake my legs, the whole thing just resets and keeps building up again.
