I was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I also have RA and OA. Gabapentin, Lyrica, and Cymbalta (duloxetine) are prescribed for fibromyalgia. I cannot tolerate any of those meds so I just deal with it. I'm not sure if you can get those drugs in your country or if they are named something else. I've heard massage helps, too. I do take meds for RA and OA. Maybe that helps with the fibromyalgia. I added you to my team so we can share our experiences. Take care.

I’m on hydroxychloroquine for my ra, Tramadol for pain relief and anti inflammatory 3 times a day, I’m due to have a review though as this doesn’t seem to be helping much, I’m also due to get further testing for lupus and fibromyalgia, im so sorry you’re in pain
