I have fibromyalgia and right now my hands hurt super freaking bad. My joints ache and I'm getting shooting pains from my fingertips to my shoulders. I have to use my hands and arms constantly at work. Any ideas on how I can relieve the pain while I am off work?

I have severe peripheral neuropathy in my hands and I also have fibromyalgia yes they have me on their ago and Duloxetine I can't say that it really works but it keeps the pain at Bay or to decide but nighttime is unbearable I've tried everything good luck I think that you still working and moving is a good thing for your hands after my retirement I've discovered that if I don't move I heart even worse
I have taken gabapentin and I didn't like it. I take Lyrica and duloxitien now, but it's just not entirely cutting it

Depending on where you live and/or work, you may not be able to, but I find cannabis very helpful.
@shamprock I do smoke cannabis and it is helpful for some pain, but this hand pain is freaking killer
I have been on gabapentin for a long time and it does help. But there are days I can't make it to the gym
tumeric pills! get them at any drug store. they help with inflammation
