Some people benefit from accupuncture, different types of supplements, chiropractic care, massage therapy, physical therapy, or warm water therapy (one of my favorite).

I can't think of anything else off the top of my fibro-foggy brain- but I'm sure there are more.

The problem with these, is that most insurance plans don't cover the 'traditional' types of medicine.

You hang in there!

Otherwise, I have done both accupuncture & massage. Both have helped me but insurance doesn't cover them so I can't get either very often.

Best of luck to you. It's no fun to be in pain. Continue to lean on us. Ask questions, vent, cry, be silly....whatever you need, we are here.

One thing I learned a long time ago is to take the pain pills regularly and stay ahead of the pain. Once that pain gets a serious hold, it takes a lot to break the pain cycle.

I took pain pills for years. At least it kept me functioning.

Hugs to Kimmy.
