Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Fibromyalgia can not be totally cured, you can only minimise symptoms by taking various medications. You can take amitryptiline and duloxetin or you can start Lyrica (pregabalin) after consulting your treating doctor.

Exercises and stretches plays important role in maintaining symptoms of fibromyalgia.

Physiotherapy like ultrasound and tens will help, along with knee exercises.

A holistic approach is required, which includes exercises, meditation, SKY [sudarshan XXXXXXX yoga] and acupuncture along with healthy diet and herbs.

I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
