Anyone else with Fibro/Pain get this way too? If so what besides Neurontin, Cymbalta and Lyrica help? I've been taking a flexeril before bed but it's not helping. I'm thinking my next step is Benadryl?

Instead of yet another drug and associated side effects, I'd suggest you try a simple magnesium supplement. Definitely helps muscles relax.
