Today, one friend mentioned thay I had lots of illnesses. I said No I have ONE illness with lots of symptoms. My other friend agreed with me. I have the insulin resistence that comes with FM. I have the Chronic Myofascial Pain that comes with FM. I have the depression that comes with FM. I can't tolerate medications so I stay in pain. All the guy friend sees is what all I can't do. But he doesn't see what I am managing to do despite my pain. How can I get all this across to him???? I was left almost feeling defensive!

I am trying to find a way to numb my body, so I can run faster in a 2.5k race. I know that a lot of pain relievers also bring down muscle function. What is something I can use that will only affect the pain?

It was warm here last week, then it turned cold this weekend, then it started to warm up again and today it's been cold and rainy. And on top of that today I've had a headache off and on. So I'm just wondering if weather changes could, because normally it's allergies, but I know today it's not. Thanks, so much.

I broke my tailbone a couple of years ago. The Doc says it is over 50% displaced. Surgery is not something I want and I have tried cortazone injections and they did not help. Any ideas from anyone. I can hardly drive a car because of the pain.
Thanks

I am suffering from shoulder/upper back/neck pain. Basically bad frontal/head/neck posture. I am been seeing a chiropractor for 3 months and doing stretchers. Without much relief. I was wondering if there a better way.
How have other people overcome this problem ?

I'm currently taking Darvocet and each pill has 650mg of acetaminophen in it. I was told to take up to 3 per day, but that seems like a lot to me. Also, does anyone know anything about the other ingredient in Darvocet? I know it's sort of like codiene, but how so?

Hello, Im 21 and for the past week ive been having constant headaches across the front of my head, they arnt bad ones, just constantly there from the moment i wake up till i go to sleep. Ive been drinking lots of water every day and getting lots of sleep but they dont seem to be shifting. I went to the doctor yesterday and they said to just take paracetamol, which doesnt do anything. Im not really sure what to do now, am getting worried it could be something bad. Any ideas what i can do to help it?

I have taken vicodin on different occasions and have never felt stomach pains. I just took two for a back ache and my stomach is hurting. i haven't eaten anything for about eight or nine hours, could that be why my stomach is acting up? If so why?

I have fibromyalgia and allready have tried numerous pain management avenues. So far, what has worked best is a strict percocet doseage, yoga, swimming, walking, hypnotism....but my doc and I haven't found a muscle relaxant that works best....used flexeril up to soma and seemingly every NSAID.....what are the strongest muscle relaxants and NSAIDs? We FINALLY found a med combo so I can sleep, but I still wake up stiff and like my body is on fire head to toe - muscle spasms in back and neck, tender points in hips and knees and thighs; some days even if I or someone else touches my skin, it hurts. Headaches and pain in face and skin are helped by the percocet - although it doesn't make me feel "high", just relief, probably like a regular person with a normal headache feels after taking excederine. Anyway, I'd like to go into my next appointment with some good suggestions for the strongest muscle relaxants and NSAIDs. PLEASE help. I'm doing everything else right to manage pain.
