I take a serotonin uptake drug to help with my sleep. I take mild painkillers because I don't want the heavy drugs. And muscle relaxants help a great deal with my leg pain.

welcome to my world.
I try meditaiton, I avoid hard pain meds as much as possible. I alternate over the counter meds, tylenol, bufferin, bayer, etc. Low impact excercise like swimming in a marm pool helps a lot. And yes, chronic headaches suck!!!
