Pain Meds For Fibro?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Just curious...how many of you get pain medication without isignificant struggle from your docs for fibromyalgia? They look at me like it’s a fake illness....have you found doctors who believe this is a real disease and believe the pain and discomfort that goes with it?

If you’re having a hard time with your rheumatologist try to find another one that is more supportive. But if you can stay away from the opiates in the long run they don’t help anyway and you just get dependent. Trying to get off them now.

Yes! They think you are just seeking drugs! Going to try a chiropractor who specializes in fibromyalgia! Wish me luck!
