Thanks! Yes I'm exploring all types of treatment and pain management. I went through several years of trying all the prescription drugs and experienced more side effects than relief so I threw them all out. The pain however gets to me so bad some days it's almost unbearable. I know methocarbomal helps me but again, it's not for long-term use. It's quite frustrating.

Oxycodone is the first pain medication that helped ease the pain of my fibromyalgia with very little side effects. I take it in 5mg doses (very small). I take 2 at night to help relieve the pain so I can sleep, but sometimes it takes 20mg on a bad night. the problem with it is that it's habit-forming so I'm researching something else that will work as good but I'm not having much luck.
