Fibro Guys

A Social Network for Men with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue or Pain

Hi guys!  I haven't been on in awhile, so i thought i'd check in.

 

I'm feeling like a sack of used assholes today, but what else is new?  I found out my local YMCA (bran new)  has a whirlpool, sauna and steam room.  I've been twice.  that really helps......for about a half hour ;)

 

I was given the Lidocaine patch which actually helps me somewhat.  Anyone else tried it?

 

Oh and i'm on Savella.  Juries still out on that one.

Heat and humidity is nice...

I used to hang out in the pool a lot, but I haven't been able to go in several years now.
Did the Savella end up working for you? I had a bad reaction to it and stopped after a couple weeks
Rick, it brought my base pain level from around a 6 to about a 4.  i don't know how much it actually helps.  definately not miraculous by any definition :)
When you're at 6, every little bit helps.
