Hello there.  Well, I have been given flexeril for a muscle relaxer. I am suppose to take it 3 times daily as needed. I don't like the way I feel being on so many medications. On top of that, Im on neurontin, Prozac, Elavil, Topamax, Kolonopin,Verapamil(only because my blood pressure rises when I have a seizure).I have found that if I push my body past what I think it is capable of doing, a little at a time, that suprisingly, although I ache, the excersize and being outdoors has made me feel a lot better then being layed up in the house. I have a lot of other things going on with me besides fibro, however. In the last month and half I have been in 3 hospitals, Had 2 MRI's on the brain and spinal chord and had a lumbar puncture through radiology. I have been diagnosed with white matter disease, and have lesions on the brain. So, I still have yet to be told if I have multiple sclerosis or not or what is causing the demylenation of white matter. I've been told that I am losing my memory. So its so hard to know if this is part of the "fibro-fog" I thought I was experiencing, or this is part of a whole new ball-game, and I feel like I am way out in left field. You are the only person that knows just how far you can push yourself. Dont give up on yourself. Remember, you have fibro, it doesn't have to have you. I hope you get to feeling better soon. Gentle Hugs.. Annie When the world says give up, hope whispers give it one more try... unknown |
