I’ve always been against such types of medication from a very un clinical belief that the side effects will probably cause as much of an issue or even more so than any perceived benefit. Like the others above, I stick with supplements and have done so for many years. I have a good strength multivitamin complex, around 300 mgs of elemental Magnesium, 4000iu of Vitamin D3 with 100 micrograms of K2 and 2 grams of Omega 3 fish oil. Like wRen2 I try to eat nutritious food, keeping my protein at around 1 gram per pound of body weight and sufficient fats. I also take 5 grams of creatine monohydrate daily, something I took when weightlifting and still do for its benefits to boost mental ability (I need all the help I can for my brain fog 🙂) and I make sure I stay well hydrated each and every day.

Same as Steve. I take some supplements to help with inflammation.

Other than that I focus on nutritious foods, myofascial release, cardio, and strength training.

ForEach of us fibromyalgia is not exactly the same. For myself I have bad reactions to most medications ,so I’ve been avoiding them for the most part so far. I’m using Tylenol and CBD at the moment. Plus, I have an infrared heating pad. That is wonderful.. It’s not ideal and I can’t do a lot of things. I hope you find the answer for you.

I use topicals. Biofreeze, ralli ,icy Hot, and Arctic ice. I alternate these topicals. A doctor told me gabapentin can cause long-term memory loss.

Thanks David! I’ve been weaning myself all meds and researching supplements to add to the vitamin D and B12 I already take. I’ve had 2 total knee replacement surgeries within last 2 months and just want to get back to clean everything.. diet, exercise and mental clarity.
