Suggest Treatment For Fibromyalgia And Spinal Stenosis
Hello, I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and spinal stenosis. I currently am taking Tylenol 3s and have been for almost a year. I take 6-8 a day, and I have done a lot of research, and feel that tramadol would be a better option for me (it worked well for me in the past). I am afraid that my doctor will label me as drug seeking, but I am not getting adequate relief from Tylenol 3, and I do not want to go back on Cymbalta or lyrica, as I gained a lot of weight from those meds. What are your thoughts? I am wanting to make a doctors appointment soon...

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, fibromyalgia is more or less is functional condition and you have to come out of this condition and for that try some exercise, meditation, yoga, and everything would be fine, soon hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
