I have had fibromyalgia for over 10 years, but until about a year ago I went untreated. Time brought more misery by the day. Finally, I accepted meds to help me sleep/lesson the pain. Low dose Elival. (I am reluctant to take new meds).

Anyway, about seven days into the treatment which worked miracles, my hand tremor started. Only the right hand, and only if I was preforming some task against gravity. Like spooning sugar to my cup, or applying eye make up. It got worse, it affects my left hand also. Now I notice that my insides are quivering-no it doesn't hurt. But, I am worried.

I know that a common side effect to any medication that crosses the brain can be a Parkinson like tremor. The treatment is to stop the med, or add another med to block the effects of the first med.

Have any one of you fellow fibro guys had this experience, and if so what did you do about it?
