How Can severe Seizure Disorder And Fibromyalgia Be Treated?

I was a registered nurse for 24 years but in the last 10 yrs practiced in the administrative capacity in a long-term care facility. I am disabled now due to an exacerbation of now uncontrolled seizure disorder. My neurologist has also given me a diagnosis of fibromyalgia. I am having a severe stinging pain on the inside and outside of both knees, elbows and shoulders but only if I rub the area but not really aggressively (drying after a bath, or rubbing my knees). I am also experiencing increased frequency in cramping in the calves of both legs and bottoms of my feet. Are these in the symptoms of fibromyalgia ?
