I told physician the other day did not want anything too sedating, have to be able to be on the ball for this work. Thank goodness off yesterday, completely zonked out. I halfed the Flexeril last night and still have sedation going on. Anyone else on this combo and could the Lyrica be causing the problem instead of Flexeril?

fibromyalgia/Lyrica
I just thought I would let anyone with fibromyalgia know that I was diagnosed 16 years ago with this disease and I have been on many drugs and also homeopathic alternatives. Well, I saw my physiatrist the other day and asked him about Lyrica because I am tired of waking up and feeling chronically fatigued and so painful in all my trigger points especially in this cold/dry and snowy weather. Well, I have taken it for 4 days now and I feel like a new person, and I do not have any of the side effects that could go along with it, so I just wanted everyone to know that there is hope out there. I hope this information helps. Lyrica is the first FDA approved drug for the treatment of fibromyalgia. Also, fibromyalgia is now recognized as a disease to the point that Aflac will not insure you for short term disability if you have fibromyalgia, so that is something else that is new too in the world of fibromyalgia.
