Interested in what people have personally experienced (pros and cons) with long-term narcotic use to manage their Fibromyalgia pain.

Yes! I go to a pain clinic monthly and I’m on Oxycodone 7.5 mg. If I didn’t have this I would not BEABLE to function. I also use many lotion, rubs for muscle pain. If only I could find something for the fatigue. The fatique is not from the Oxycodone.

@A MyFibroTeam Member, I was diagnosed with chronic pain, severe to medium osteoarthritis, Dr gave me pain medication, but as soon as Fibromyalgia hit pain level increase rapidly, so now I'm using hydromorphone twice a day. When I talk to my Dr for lowing dosage, he answered are you feeling better with it? Yes, of course, I would like to take only one medication to ease the pain and all health issue I already have. Just keep moving, smiling and try to be the more positive I can.
