I feel for you. A hot soak in the bath usualllyhelps me or at least takes my mind off the pain for a few minutes. I have to make sure that someone is in the house just in case I need help getting out! Sorry I can't be of much help hopefully somebody else will be along soon and be able to offer a bit more support and advice. Chin up.

Right away you can take Ibuprofen or another NSAID and call 111 for advice. But I guess you must go to ER...ASAP. It may be spine, sciatica, etc, so it should be checked, scans, Xrays, etc. Acute pain may be a "comorbidity" but it's not FibroM. I hope you get well soon. X
Thank you for your reply i need to go to my doctors as soon as possible ive taken morphine and napain cos im allegic to ibrufon ny rheumatologist doesnt want to know and my doctor is trying to help but she has told me she knows nothing about fibro myglia so unhappy at mo

amozon
Not sure what that means sorry
I think Tiswas means that you can buy the flakes from Amazon
Cheers thanx for your help
Yes I get my mag flakes from Amazon. You can also get a spray to use on painful joints. Have you asked your doc if there is another rheumatologist she could refer you to? The one I saw was unhelpful too. I got most help from the pain clinic which is where I was actually diagnosed. I take Pregabalin which was suggested at pain clinic, and Tramadol and Co-codamol as back up. The other thing that could be helpful for you is CBT which helps you to deal with the pain. Oh, hot water bottles on the painful area is another thing I do when pain is bad. Where is your pain? xx
yes i did. absolutly shattered to day brain fog terriable .
i was only one leter wrong .terriable brain fog today
No probs it happens to me thanks
Mine is my hips and thighs hands and fingersthanks for the info i will try the flakes
I get bad pain in my thighs and hands too. The mag flakes definitely help thigh pain, although the relief is only temporary. I also use Algesal cream on my hands which helps. You can get this from a pharmacy. Good luck and hope you are feeling better today. I've got a UTI so I feel like crap! xx
