    About Me

    My name is Jacque. I live in a small town right outside of Dallas. I have a wonderful husband of 8 years. We have a 11 year old son we adopted in December of 2007. I have fibromyalgia and am struggling to keep my sanity. I have so many bad days lately that I feel useless to my family. I am hoping to gain some insight from this site on how to deal with it better.

    • Close Fibromyalgia

      I was diagnosed with this the 1st time when I was 21 and did not believe the Dr. because, I had never heard of it. Then I was diagnosed again 3 years ago. I have all 18 points & have been diagnosed by 2 different Dr.'s now & the 2nd doctor was amazing but, retired after my 2nd visit. I am at my wits end with being told there is nothing they can do for me other than medicate me. Even with the medication I am still in constant pain. I feel I am useless to my family & am not coping well at all.

      Treatments

      Aqua Therapy Too Soon to Tell
      I just started going to a inside pool and hot tub. Hopefully it will work.
      Hydrocodone Somewhat Helpful
      Klonopin Working / Worked
      Pamelor Not Working
      I think this medication is working ok. We are now messing with the mg to see how much I need.
      Prozac Too Soon to Tell
      They just put me on this and it takes 3-6 weeks to see the results.
      Zanaflex Working / Worked
      This is the new muscle relaxer that my rhemo put me on. It works great. I can take 1-2 3x a day and 1-4 at bedtime but, the 2 knock me on my butt.
    • Close Restless Legs Syndrome

      I was diagnosed with RLS about 5 years ago. I have been on klonopin the entire time. They have tried other drugs on me for it also but, they did not seem to work.
