Does anyone have Fibromyalgia. How do you cope with it. Besides Medications?
I have three meds I take daily. I try to keep as active as I can. But mornings are awful. I can hardly walk when I wakeup. And feel tired always. Any help will be appreciated.

2. I know how you feel. My mother was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 8 years ago. She is in shocking pain for which she takes prednisolone. She is allergic to many things so this is her only option. She also suffers from extreme tiredness and very weak and sore muscles. She also has Mitochondriamyopathy which contributes to the fibromyalgia. I have been having a lot of trouble for several years now and my physiotherapist thinks I have fm as well. I can understand how you must feel. Are you very sensitive to touch? that seems to be a major problem for my mother and I. I don't know if there is any other suggestion to help with pain since you are on meds, apart from hydrotherapy which is what I am doing at the momment. It allows you to get moving more freely without the weight of your body putting strain on your muscles. Keep moving for as long as you can, the hydro really does help. Good luck.
3. my cousin has it, you have to be on a special diet to control it. meds will make ya tired. i think you cut out or lower your intake of carbs.
