Close Sjogren's Syndrome

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 16 years ago and had to quit fulltime work. Stayed home for 12 years. Worked in a school computer lab for three years and have had an office job for a year - very low key. I was diagnosed with SjS and Disautonomia about a year and a half ago. My health state has been declining since before that. Also have sleep apnea (use the CPAP sometimes!) recently discovered my TMJD has gotten much worse- damaged cartlidge they want to do surgery and replace...It seems to never end! My level of pain and fatigue have gottem MUCH worse as of late. Have been contemplating applying for disability.

Lyrica Working / Worked

Robaxin Working / Worked

helps me relax when muscles wont do so on their own....also helps tension headaches

Ultram Working / Worked

This really helps my pain. My metabolism is slow so it takes at least an hour to start working but it really works well then. However, I'm finding I cannot take it at bedtime as it keeps me awake all night! Lortab does this to me as well.
