I have Fibro and take 200mg of Lyrica(pregabalin) 3xs a day, and that's been a great help. I also just added 50mg Nortriptyline for IBS and it's helped my hand pain a lot. I tried cymbalta, and it helped with back pain but made me sleep 4 more hours a day, and gabapentin had rough side effects, which is why I switched to Lyrica. My mom has fibro too and didn't get any relief from cymbalta, apparently it only works for about 30% of people. I'm not sure what she is taking now.

Gabapentin helped the most for me. I tried everything… now I’m not on any of the standard meds for fibro or small fiber neuropathy.

I take gabapentin 1200mg throughout the day. And muscle relaxers. Both help a lot

I use medical marijuana I know its not for everyone but it really helps me.

My neurologist has me on LYRICA, cymbalta and plaquenil..I’m finally out of pain for the most part after a horrible year.. I missed my LYRICA and plaquenil the other morning and nerve pain came back… at least I know it’s working… I had covid last month which ramped up the pain so try to stay healthy in that regard:)

I'm on 50 mg of Lyrica at bedtime, and it has been helping with pain throughout the night and a little into the next morning. I will be upping my dose this winter because my pain is always worse, but I can say in my experience Lyrica is great. It can exacerbate fatigue a lot though

Gabapentin, muscle relaxants, opiates, tricyclic antidepressants, NDRIs, NSAIDs, lidocaine, full spectrum cannabis, amino acid supplements, antioxidant supplements, turmeric, topical arnica, Voltaren.

I went through a whole range of pills that did not help even slightly. Lyrica, duloxetine. Gabapentin was awful. I decided to go natural if I was going to be in pain on all the pills anyways. I put ginger in my morning smoothies. A lot of people aren’t big fans of the taste. If I miss my smoothie I feel like I have a flare up. Magnesium. I use a topical “muscle relief magnesium spray” and add lavender. Swear by that one. It’s the theraworx off-brand. CBD creams, but a lot come with peppermint or menthol and it feels like toothpaste. Alot of things I felt like weren’t working because I was still in pain. Nothing will stop it entirely. I only noticed the difference when I stopped taking/doing them and the pain came back worse. Ginger has been a godsend.

4.5 mg Low Dose Naltrexone and Claritin. I used to take tramadol and gabapentin but no longer need it.

Hey there! I took Gabapentin for almost a year and it was pretty damaging to me on a psychological level, and frankly I know it’s a common prescription but I wouldn’t reccommend it 😅 I’ve now been on Topamax for several months and I’ve seen some improvement! Nothing insane, but I have a baseline at the very least now ❤️

gabapentin! I take 300mg 3x a day. also 10mg cyclobenzaprine 2x a day and occasionally Percocet 5/325

I started Amitriptyline before I started cymbalta which helped but when the pain got worse the doc doubled the Amitriptyline and added cymbalta. The two together make the pain bareable to an extent.
