I'm on Lyrica and occasionally I'm on flexeril to help with some muscle aches. I find grounding exercises can help with the pain, as well as meditation. Sometimes getting in touch with what actually hurts can help you avoid a trigger. I find sometimes also when I'm over stimulated I feel more pain. If you're also going through depression see if Cymbalta can be beneficial.

Did the Lyrica make you gain weight?

What is Lyrica for?

I kinda forced myself to adjust to the pain by accepting it, rather than making it more painful by amplifying it with suffering, which is just resistance to pain I think. Yeah meditation helps, so having a meditation mindset.

I use compression sleeves for my arms and legs! Hope you find relief❤️

I’ve come to accept the pain, but it sucks!! I’ve been using everything from lidocaine patches to it strips

I have a permanent spine injury as well as arthritis so I'm always in pain & sometimes it's pretty awful. So here are some things I do, I hope that it helps! I take percocet & muscle relaxers for pain. Bayer back & body is a pretty fantastic over the counter medication. Also hot baths with Dr. Teals Epsom salt (they have some for pain). Sometimes I sleep on a heating pad on the lowest setting. Being adjusted by a chiropractor or messages are also good options. Before I developed pots I would do yoga or swim sometime no impact exercise helps.
