Hi, all! I am a 29 year old woman, newly diagnosed with Fibromyalgia (spelling?)My doctor has had me try nearly every thing for my constant pain and depression; Zoloft, amtriptiline (spell?),skelaxin,trazadone,bextra, flexeril,celexa,mobic,ostio-bioflex,tylonol #3,...the list seems to go on and on. About 2 weeks ago he wanted me to try 60ml of cymbalta. He said it worked as a AD and pain blocker, yet Non-narcotic... For the first time in about a year, I did sit ups today! I did crunches, push ups, cleaned house, and went Christmas shopping with my mother! I felt GREAT! I felt like I was "in my 20's"...and not "70's". I pray that this keeps up. I was so tired of feeling tired, cold, and achy. The last year has been so dificult...now I have stopped taking most of those other meds, and feel great!
FINALLY...A BREAKTHROUGH!!!
