Need Medication For Fibromyalgia
Hello, I have fibromyalgia. I was dx by my doctor who recently retired. New doc wants second opinion..waiting for apt w/rheumatologist. I was taking Tramadol for this not qd. She says it is too addicting and doesn t mix w/Adderall or other psyche meds. (I didn t care for Lyrica, tried gabapentin) Basically she is telling me she doesn t think I have it; and my doubting a revered physician s dx. I know I need to exercise more anfd am working on this. I guess I need another dr? I also am on HCTZ 25 mg. BP s improved. I am trying to quit smoking....starting w/PA quit line and have Nicotrol. Too many NSAIDS or Naprosyn isn t good for BP s. Any suggestions??
