Many things: Managing your pain requires a multidisciplinary approach. Some types of exercise, tai chi, and acupuncture can help. I have people do pt before exercising alone. The fda approved meds include: savella, (milnacipran) cymbalta, and lyrica. They work in different ways to turn down the volume on the pain. The medications can help but are not always needed to treat the symptoms of fms. You need good sleep habits.
