the amitriptyline is to help me sleep, not so much for the pain because it does nothing in that department. I was on cymbalta and it worked ok for the pain but didn't do anything for energy. The old...
So I went to Dr #2 today again. He had me do a sleep study a few weeks ago and it was normal. The sleep study doctor wants to do more tests (joy!). I talked with Dr #2 and he said it IS fibro and has...
lol I went to one of those when i was kid and had no problems. I think it was the star wars one when you're in a shuttle or something....
We went to the regular 3d, not the Imax cause it broke! and then they were sold out. The thing is that the 3d wasn't all that spectacular in the regular 3d. The 5 seconds we got to see on the imax...
I was fine though until I woke up, that's what was weird. It didn't even bother me while I was watching the movie. It was wild!...
Ok so I went to see avatar in 3d over the weekend. I was fine and when I woke up the next day, I was so dizzy! It lasted until 4pm. I was just so dizzy that I couldn't even get up. I've seen a few...
i have one and i do like it. I wish it would stay warm longer though. I wish I had one I could put around my entire body. lol...
lol you are probably right about the cold and I stopped exercising too. I need to get back with it. I struggle to get up every day. I just need to remind myself that 2 extra hours won't help but if i...
I quit because it was supposed to be for energy but it wasn't helping for energy. My pain wasn't so bad before but this was back in July. I was on effexor before but it did nothing for me. So he told...
Hi everyone! I came in November to ask about a new symptom and waiting to go see another doctor. I went to see my doctor and it was just more of the same, wait and see. He did order a whole new set...
I just got it and haven't started yet but I'm hoping it will help with pain....
I know what you mean. The pain is one thing but this stabbing stuff really makes me stop and when I'm driving, it's not cool at all! I hope you find find answers MWM....
Yeah i was going to call him today but I got side tracked. I'll call him tomorrow to find out. I don't think I've been doing more. The weather is wacky here but that's Oklahoma for you. 40s one day,...
oh crap, he didn't tell me that. I guess I'll have to take it in strides. I don't feel like I have more energy but I need to give it more time. That does make sense though. Thank you so much!...
Thanks for the replies. I didn't have much side effects the second time I tried it. The first time, it made me so sick! But I've been taking it at night and it's better. I felt great (pain wise) on...
Hi everyone, I have a question and it may seem weird. I'm on amitriptyline at night and cymbalta. I'm on low doses but the docotr just increased my cymbalta to 60mg about 2 weeks ago. It's weird...
he told me to cut down. I'm not dehydrated, he checked that and my sodium level is fine too. I do need to give it up though. Unfortunately I hate water but I'm going to try to find something. I don't...
Thank you so much! I actually slept really good but was in a haze this morning. He did a blood test, i think lymes would have shown something (higher wbc? i can't remember) but all my labs were...
Yeah I know he's being thorough but I've been seeing him since August for this. I'm ready! I'll look up those classes. I try to pace myself because otherwise I'll be useless and dead for days after....
I haven't had a chance yet to read. I've been too busy trying to catch up on stuff that should have been done last week. I'm going to. I was taking magnesium but it had calcium in it and it really...
Well I had a heart to heart with my doctor. I asked him what he ruled out and what was still on the table. He basically said he ruled out everything (lupus, ms, diabetes, thyroid etc). He said he was...
I just can't give them away. I take the dogs to daycare a few times a week so they do get exercise. The cats, well they come and snuggle when I go to bed. I feel bad for my birds because they don't...
Thanks guys! You know the weird part is that I had a sore throat for 6 months until I got sick with the crud and then that went away. He's a good dr, he brought up fibro first. I think the problem is...
Yeah Patti, I guess that's the "good" thing about fibro, it isn't degenerative. I am thankful for that. I'm pretty sure with those blood tests, he rules out ms, lymes, lupus. I know blood tests are...
Thanks guys. Well for example, I walk the dogs on a 1mile course (through my neighborhood) and it takes me 40 minutes (i let them snif here and there) and I told my doctor that I hurt and he told me...
I have a question about fibro pain. I'm still waiting for my doctor to rule on my mystery ailment. I think it's a combo fibro/cfs and I've done a lot of reading but one thing that doesn't fit is...
