Brief Answer:
You should try other medicines.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Madam,

Thank you for posting your query on HCM.

Well looking into your query I would like to tell you that you should try using amitryptylline or duloxetine for fibromyalgia . They generally give a very good response to these drugs specially when others are not working .

I will advise you to discuss this with your treating doctor .

Take care.
