I need help learning about Fibromyalgia and what treatments others use for relief I get the feeling that the community thinks I'm looking for Schedule II Drugs, ie narcotics and I absolutely don't want that. Thank you

I suffer from migraines as well as depression and have been on so many different drugs over the last 3 yrs I could start my own pharmacy. Nacotics trigger migraines. The anit-depressants make me more tired. I am not sleeping well and feeling like I just cannot see another damn doctor. Anyone have anything that helps??? Is there a specialist out there for this type of thing. I am seeing a primary care, a psychologist and a phychiatrist. Its getting too expensive and not helping me very much. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

My mother is 78 years old. She is a type 2 diabetic. She is having severe pain in here thighs. They are in the form of spasms. They come sitting, lying or when trying to walk. She has been to emergency room at Kaiser 3 times in the last week. They have given her morphine, codine and other drugs which don't work. Vascular insufficiency? intermittent claudication? diabetic neuropathy? We have received many diagnoses from radiation damage to nerve endings from cancer treatments to complications with diabetees. Is there a pain center or some specialist in so. cal. Can this pain ever be stopped? Can diabetic neuropathy be this bad in the thighs. Can physical therapy help. Please any help would be greatly appreciated.

i am morbidly obese (5'9"-294 lbs)I have insulin resistant diabetes. In my treatment plan I am to take along with my Metformin 2 other drugs to aid in my weight loss BYETTA-and XENACAL. I also have neuropathy as a complication from the diabetes and am prescribed LYRICA. My insurance will not cover the XENECAL for it is a weight loss drug and considered a "frivilous" expense. Nor will they cover LYRICA for it is new on the market .Ineed these meds in order to live a productive life to help loose the weight so i will not be diabetic. I am 45. I want to live until I'm 75. With out these meds ,I could die in 5 years.
The cost of these meds are -XENECAL-0.00 for a 30 day supply
LYRICA-0.00 for a 30 day supply.

I have taken neurontin and now take Lyrica for a short time. Are drugs the only thing a doctor can recommend? This condition ruins my life.
