Fibromyalgia Pain: The best thing for fibromyalgia pain in my opinion is to eliminate as many of the root causes as possible. No excuses. Dramatic changes in diet, exercise, and mindset are often not included in the treatment plan, but I have seen in my practice that they are absolutely mandatory for best results.

Cause FM officially "unknown" & empirical evidence of therapeutic efficacy holds sway. Aquatherapy, Cymbalta, Lyrica, Savella (milnacipran) & Cannabis have been reported, in medical literature, effective. FM "survivors" tout nutritional therapies, yoga, mindfulness therapies & exercise. Read survivor stories.
