How can i cope with fibromyalgia when doc wants me off narcotics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: Have you tried the approved meds such as Lyrica, Savella, (milnacipran) Cymbalta or gabapentin? If you have failed these meds and have relied on narcotics for a while, you may want to consult with a pain specialist.
