Sounds like what I have whenI don't have the "bad attacks". I went from 110/75 to an average of 125/90 and a bad rate of 160/110. So, yes I am thinking heart problems are somehow realated to Fibro. I...
Thanks for all the support. I see the cardiologist on Wednesday. They are gonna have to take me off Cardizem and try something else because I am having a reaction. I hope they come up with something...
Yes! That's exactly what he called it, Supraventricular tachycardia. It is exhausting! I didn't know if it's part of fibo or what. I am just so exhausted between the SVT, PSTD, depression, & fibro....
I am so tired of getting new diagonzes that I think are frightening. Fibromyalgia. Multiple fractured kneecap. Depression. Anxiety. Heck I have so many diagonzes I can't remember them. Oh yeah...
Well Ladies; I think I qualify for this topic. Last night I took an Ambien which didn't kick in right away. I made the mistake of going to the kitchen. I inhaled an english muffin with peanut putter...

Welcome to the Club! I definetly have fibro fog. My family saw it after I was given a "leave of absence" from my job. I took the dishes out of the dishwasher, walked over to the frig opened it and...
Ugh! I kinda thought so. It's just the sweating that threw me. I think it is my meds. I just don't know which one. I'm gonna start with the most recent change (this week) and see what the side...
Hi! I can't seem to find anything on this one. This week I am exhausted and can hardly stay awake. Usually I can't sleep at all. I am also in a lot of muscle pain. I haven't been able to do a thing...
Glad I found this post.. I have been thinking about buying a sleep number. I only need a twin size so that's not as expensive as the others. I hateto spend a lot if it's not going to help. I am going...
Alcie: I had terrible problems with tramadol. PC insisted I take it for pain but it actually has bad side effects with gabapentin which I was also taking 300 3 x's a day. The other drug that caused...
Wow! AcheyBody When I read your post all I kept thinking was I could have written it. I made a nice little list of easy things I wanted to accomplish today. I hardly got anything done. I don't have...
Thanks for the feedback! It's good to know I'm not the only one....
I am glad to see it's not just me. I wonder how much of it is insomnia related. I took the ambien and got at least 6 hrs sleep but I think I also had an "ambien hangover". When you think you are...

Hi Sue! Hang in there. It will take a while for your meds to kick in and be at the right level for you. Don't stop your meds with out talking your doctor. Antidepressants need to be tapered off not...
I don't know if it was a flare or not. But food for thought regarding future surgery; When people with fibromyalgia have surgery, it is suggested that the arm with the IV should be kept near your...
hi Sheila; Insomnia is the pits! I think the worst is those nights you almost fall asleep but end up tossing and turning all night. I do use Ambien occassinally but try to limit that to once a week....
Praying for you!...
I tried Lyrica twice. Each time I had to quit within a week because I was allergic to it. I plan to ask my doctor about cymbalta. I am on antidepressants and have learned medical tests show they do...
I also have pain in my back, neck & shoulders. I found an almost too hot bath helps relax the muscles. There are some bath salts that also help relax muscles & have aroma therapy benefits. I also try...
