Regular sleep routine. Heat. I have a heated blanket for flares. It is wonderful for when one heating pad isn't big enough. I use arnica gel. The single thing that helps the most for me while I wait for otc pain relievers to kick in is Villiage Naturals Therapy Chronic pain and fatigue Epsom salt soak in a hot bath. I hope you can find something to relieve your pain soon.

I agree with medical marijuana. It has helped me so much with my fibromyalgia.
