Should I continue the yucky parts of my treatment protocol?

I am 2 1/2 years into treatment for fibro. I have a couple of bad days per week, but overall I function at about 65-70% of what I did prior to fibro. My life is certainly different, but overall, it's not horrible.

Recently, I have started to think that my treatment is a lot of annoyances & deprivations. I take a lot of vitamins, supplements, a few prescription meds, etc, some of which cause mood & digestive problems. My rheumy would like for me to be fairly restrictive on what I consume. I have embraced lifestyle changes to help me feel better.

So, my issue is am I living a restrictive lifestyle now hoping that the future will be so much better? Am I trading days now for the hope of better days in the future, knowing that there are no definitive answers? I can see that that's the way all intrusive medical treatment is-doing things that make us feel worse now in the hope that we'll be better in the future. I'm all about present moment awareness, & at my age, 54, I don't know if I want to give up my life to restrictions & feeling bad due to meds, supplements, etc, for some possible future improvement.

I am trying to process all this & would love to hear any of your thoughts. Thanks so much.

For those of us who have had FM for a few years or more, I think we need to step back and do this kind of assessment once in while. Good for you for being mindful.
Every once in awhile, I go off all medicines that I am taking for fibro…I do it the correct way, titrating if needed, at my doctor's instruction. I feel it is important for me to look the fibromyalgia straight in the face and see how it is manifesting in my body…we get so used to the "new normal" on our meds, that we can forget/lose touch with how it really is.
It actually helps me decide on medication changes and gives me much gratitude for the help they do give me! Does anyone else do this?
