Unfortunately I can't remember the last day that I had a pain free day! Hugs🤗

Never had a pain free day,but I have a very good pain management doctor that helps regiments my meds from John Hopkins & together we try other alternatives besides just pills...if you ever want to chat let me know. My heart goes out to you & all....GOD BLESS!!!!

Not many. I take a lot of medications. Between meds and infusions for UC, I max out my deductibles each year.

To be honest, I have to take Tylenol 3 every morning along with the Fibro med, and all of my other UC meds.

I take a balance between Gabapentin and Lyrica to manage symptoms. The main draw back is I put on close to 30 pounds and my heart rate is not as good...I really need a better alternative.

Hot showers help me. Magnesium Citrate is a good supplement to use.

Depression makes all of it worse, and I can't tolerate many antidepressants. I just use OTC supplement called 5-HTP which is a quick and non dependent way of introducing seratonin. Still I can only take obe every other day as I easily get seratonin syndrome for some reason.

FYI, sugar is the devil. Avoid alcohol and caffeine. Limit loud music (FYI - I like rock and metal), its bad for the nerves and brain with this condition.

For some people sex may also trigger problems. Also exercise, so limit exercise and take it at your own pace.

Can't remember the last time I was pain free for more then a couple of hours. Got used to a medium level of pain all day every day

a pain-free day for me is minimal "annoying" pain. but for us of course its just minimal, for someone else it could have them in tears
