Here is a summary of various things people are trying:
Fibromyalgia Medications
Some Fibromyalgia treatment consists of taking medicines to treat symptoms such as muscle pain, sleep problems, depression, fear or anxiety. Some prescribed Fibromyalgia medicines are Cymbalta, Lyrica, Savella. I am naturally against medication but especially for someone with Fibromyalgia. A person's wiring system that suffers from Fibromyalgia symptoms will over time get even more confused and only makes the body more susceptible to other diseases. New research shows that cancer risk is double for those with Fibromyalgia. There are many alternative Fibromyalgia treatment methods available.
Physical Therapy for Fibromyalgia Sufferers
Another Fibromyalgia treatment that doctors often prescribe is physical therapy to help manage Fibromyalgia pain and to teach self-management skills. I personally believe that a daily, gentle and consistent exercise program works wonders. I remember it being the last thing I wanted to do. My body was hurting, I felt like I had been in a major accident and felt bruised all over my body and the last thing I wanted to do was move my body. And yet it was the one thing that eventually helped me get better. The key is to be gentle and kind to yourself. There's no need to be harsh with your body.
Medical Marijuana
I have a zero tolerance for drugs, period, and while there may (or may not) be proof that marijuana works as a Fibromyalgia treatment, what gets ruined in your brain along the way is irrepairable. The trade-off is not worth it.
Fibromyaliga Diet
A very effective Fibromyalgia treatment is to eat healthy. The longest chapter in my book is dedicated to the Fibromyalgia diet and I can't stress enough how important a healthy diet is for Fibromyalgia sufferers. For immediate relief there are three things you can cut out right away and get good results: white sugar, dairy products and articifial anything (be it artificial butter or articifial sweeteners).
