She doesn't take any meds other than ibuprofen (on a really bad day). We have serious doubts about the effectiveness of antidepressants like Lyrica since the data show very little difference over placebo.
She eats healthy; as fresh as possible and has cut back on meat. She also doesn't carry around a lot of extra weight, when she was heavier her fibro was worse. But the big thing - she swears that moving her body is most effective. She does a stretching routine every morning and evening and during the day takes a walk outside or inside on the treatmill. But there are also days when she just has to listen to her body and rest because the fatigue is too much.
We've talked about what she might do if her symptoms get worse and will use cannabis.
Right now though, she's doing well. She's 72 and was diagnosed 8 years ago.
I hope this helps in some way, and I'm sorry you're having to deal with fibromylagia.
