How To Treat Fibromyalgia Without Any Side Effects Caused From Medications?

I have fibromyalgia and was on a prescription medication for it; however, the medication gave the warning that it could make you quite dizzy and it certainly did. I had to quit taking the Rx because I came so close to some serious falls because of the dizziness. I am 76 years old and still very active. My primary care doctor said that I was healthier than 90 per cent of his other patients, so I feel fortunate; BUT the fibromyalgia has certainly inteferred with my normal life style. What can I take or do to relieve this problem? Thank you for listening.

I really appreciate your concern, Fibromyalgia is not the disease or say pathological process that can be treated with some specific drugs but it is the functional kind of illness, looking to your age better to come out of this condition without the help of medicine and if you are doing well healthy so can do it, else no need to worry about this hope this information helps.
