    Topiramate Any Thoughts?

    It has recently been suggested that I try Topiramate since I have the cluster headaches, fibro pain and lack of sleep. Anybody have any experience using Topiramate?

    Discontinuing Cymbalta--Ugh!

    Two weeks into my Cymbalta taper with Zoloft replacement and I'm wondering why I ever began this drug in the first place. Yes, it did help some with pain but I've got to wonder what price I paid for that. Headaches, brain zaps, nausea, anxiety, pain, GI dysfunction, and a whacked out sleep...

    Diagnosed 3 years ago but still lost!

    I was diagnosed by a pretty crummy rheumatologist who basically went off of some blood tests taken by my GP and then felt my joints (which always hurt) and said that I had Fibro. I had no idea what that was and she didnt tell me. I stopped seeing her because she didnt listen to me and didnt seem...

    Not sure if it's fibro yet...

    Hello :-) I'm waiting on some blood tests but I think I have fibro. I'll be 51 in a few days and have been suffering from pain and tiredness since my early 30s. I had lower back surgery that resulted in a dural tear and a staph infection so had blamed my lower body pain on that and anything...

    Fibro or not?

    For years I've been told I had neuropathy, then pheripherial neuroopathy, and last year Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease. I just saw a new neurologist and he did lots of test, including a MRI of the brain and he's ruled out everything neurological. But, he does think it's Fibromyalgia. I don't know...

    I have been in a limbo the past few months with my health. It all started around August when I developed an eye twitch. I googled it and was determined I had a serious illness.
