    • Close Fibromyalgia

      I was diagnoised with FM 15 Years ago, i have IBS and CF, Depression, and Panic attacks i suffer with asthma and other everyday things that all FM sufferers have to put up with. I have a stick and elbow crutches and a wheelchair for when out shopping. I got myself a mobility scooter and i have a lot of independance with it. It was the best thing ever bought.

      Treatments

      Effexor Somewhat Helpful
      venlafaxine help me to relax and most of the time the keep me calm because of depression. I have had no side effects which is great
      Elavil Somewhat Helpful
      this is taken at night to try to get relaxed to sleep. it helps me sometimes but not when i have had a stressful day.
      Heat Working / Worked
      when localised pain it is great. specially the neck.
      Morphine Not Working
      I found it just was not right for me, i felt so ill on it.
      TENS Somewhat Helpful
      but the pain was so wide spread that it only helped the area it was on. when it was of you then realised it only disguised the pain.
    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      i HAVE SUFFERED DEPRESSION FOR SERVERAL YEARS NOW AND IT DOES NOT GET ANY EASIER TO DEAL WITH.

      Treatments

      Effexor Somewhat Helpful
      they help me to stay calm but i still have really bad days. no side effects thankfully but they are making a difference.
      Elavil Somewhat Helpful
      just had dose up to two nightly to help me relax a bit better. helping me get of to sleep but am having broken sleep. I know they are not for that but at least they help me relax to get over.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      behavioural counseling. i went to this for a year and even now i can think back and see how it helped me. it was here i learnt to keep a dairy.
      Writing Working / Worked
      this helps as you look back and see how you handle things and how your day pans out when you do certain things.
