Hi RLS. I completely understand. I have FMS and CFS as well. I've never been given Mirapex. I take Cymbalta for both the pain and lifelong chronic depression.

I find your comments about magnesium very interesting. Another fibro pal and I were just talking about that a couple days ago. I take epsom salt baths and notice when I do, it helps. Apparently the magnesium in it is absorbed into the body. But I'm not a doctor, that was just gal pal talk. But..epsom salts have been used for a longgggg time for pain.

I'm glad you found us. Welcome to a caring support place and gentle hugs.
