What do you mean "no doctor will help me"? Do you mean they would not give you opioids? How many doctors? I use a cream with CBD, THC and Arnica in it. It's called Chiro Care. I buy it at a health food store and it really helps ease my pain. Maybe you should try something like this.

Have you ever tried topicals? I have found that Icy Hot roller is one of the best. Takes a few minutes to work. I have found that oral medications such as Advil or Tylenol do nothing. Also have you tried a heating pad?

Over the counter prescription do not work. I take Tylenol. I cannot take Aleve or Motrin due to high blood pressure and on blood thinners.

There are several medication options that can help manage fibromyalgia pain. Over-the-counter pain relievers and certain prescription medications may provide relief. While opioids are no longer recommended due to risks of dependence, there are other options to discuss with healthcare providers.

Some medications that may help include:
• Pain management medications
• Sleep medications (since poor sleep can worsen pain)
Cymbalta, which some find helpful for both pain and mood
• Medical cannabis (though evidence is limited and it may not be recommended in all cases) It's understandable to feel frustrated when seeking help for chronic pain. If current doctors aren't providing adequate support, consider seeking out healthcare providers who specialize in fibromyalgia treatment specifically. Remember that finding the right treatment plan often requires trying different approaches and working closely with healthcare providers to adjust medications as needed.
