AS and fibromyalgia.at same time. Who else has it and how often do you have fibro flares?
...
Hallo, Jillian: Ich habe Fibro und es kann wirklich schlimm werden. Ich habe alle paar Wochen Schübe, bei denen ich nicht aus dem Bett kommen kann. Ich hatte letzten Woche einen. Ich weiß nie, wann mich einer trifft, aber er lähmt mich. Ich nehme Tramadol und Lyrica dagegen ... hoffe, das hilft ...
Hi there Carole, thanks for that info, I will trial 75mg lyrica tomorrow prior to when I always commence a flare- I' m optimistic that it could help and I know that I have the lee-way to do so, since previous discussions about lyrica with my Dr and rheumatologist. In the meantime, I will research tramadol.
Ich hoffe, es hilft, Jillian...es gibt ein paar Nebenwirkungen, aber es lindert den Schmerz wirklich für mich (Lyrica)...Tramadol ist ein Opioid und kann süchtig machen, aber ich nehme jeden Tag zwei...Gute Besserung, Süße...
Hiya, yes, i have AS, PsA & Fibro, at the moment i'm on co-codamol, gabepentin, prednisolone, setraline and ad-cal. The gabapentin has helped with some aspects of fibro flares, i no longer get the 'sparkler burn' sensation in my arms, but other than that, i can't say i've seen much improvement. The pain relief & pred for my AS/PsA is not working at all. i'm desperately hoping at my next rheumy appointment in a month will bring some more relief and proper meds, as i can't carry on like i have been. I feel i have been in permanent fibro flare over last 6 weeks or so, but i think it seems worsened because of the other pains and fatigue. I see alot of posts positive about tramadol, unfortunately i can't have it, or any other anti-inflamatory as they aggravate my asthma. Hope the lyrica works for you. x
