Not blackouts but it's what they're refer too as fibro fogs. Get them all the time. Its scary but know that it shall pass.

Unfortunately those are all signs of fibro but I do agree that you should check your medications to make sure that they are not the source of the problem. Also the blackouts that you are having may be seizures and not blackouts at all. Most people think seizures are convulsive and you shake but I have experienced seizures that are nonconvulsive and during these seizures I don't remember sometimes what what's going on around me or is going on around me. Also when my neurologist checked my meds list he found out that Wellbutrin only increases my seizure activity when mixed with Keppra. Once taking off of the Wellbutrin my seizures and blackout became less frequent but I still have them. But also coming off of the Wellbutrin which I was taking for focus and concentration has caused my focus and concentration to be an issue all over again. But I Chuck it all up to the fact that you lose some and you win some. Fibromyalgia is a very hard disease to function with all we can do is try our best good luck.

Look at the list of medicine you are taking, please. At times we will try anything to decrease the pain and every tablet we take has side effects.

I noticed after I stopped taking Cymbalta my memory and brain fog wasn't as bad. I think all the drugs they put us on make it worse 😟
