Most docs do not recommend narcotics for FM. I agree. Yes the pain can be that bad at times but it has been studied and they find that other meds and treatments work either better or about the same as narcotics.
I was on Vicodin and then Duragesic patches and neither helped the pain. It was always there.
I can understand her despiration though.
