I was diagnosed a year ago with severe Fibromyalgia that was way out of control. My Neuro has my migraines under control with 300 mg topiramate and 6 months ago increased my Cymbalta to 90 mg (from 60 mg). There has been no positive change in my Fibro pain.

I have been told that Fibro is not progressive, though my muscle and joint pain continues to worsen. My Rheumy does not seem to be concerned about and I don't see him again until the end of December.

Sometimes, I wonder if I was prematurely labeled with Fibro once MS, Lyme, and Lupus were ruled out. My PCP feels I probably have RA even if the bloodwork is not showing it. I see him early next month and hopefully we will do some more labs. I just feel like I am losing my mind and this horrible pain of 8-10 never stops.

Thanks for letting me vent. I hope all who read this have a low to no pain day.
