Don't they give antidepressants for FM anymore? I was diagnosed with it in the 80's and the antidepressants worked pretty well for me because I got good sleep. Now I'm on a combination of low dose prednisone, Trileptal and Lyrica and that works pretty well for me although at times of stress, I can feel my elbow trigger points getting pretty painful. I'm taking these drugs for PN, though.

Oh, and I'm on Flexiryl at bedtime and Vicodin as needed for this, too. The combination or all these things works well for me.
