OK Someone should be albe to help

[ladyrhea4]

Hello All,

OK everyone that knows who I am  I have been off Methadone for over a 100 days..(sorry I have not looked) but anyway what I need help with is as fallows
I have had Pain Problems for Years now and the doctors have told me it is Fibromyalgia and my point to this is when you are in pain for a long time , You get really tired and you just grumpy and What can a person take beside Pain Meds? Is there something out there? I can't take the pain but if I start taking Pain Meds again wont they just have to keep putting me up Higher and Higher? Sort of thing and is there a Pain Killer that is NON Addictive?

Just trying to find a way to get some Relief and not be popping Pills all the time.
And I'm sure not trying to step on anyone's toes who does take pain meds daily I understand that there are times you have to..
OK everyone thanks for reading and Sorry  I have not been online...

XOXOX Rhea

Rhea , sorry for this and i really hope you can find some helpful treatment like the one above that works for you :)

The homeopathic approach worked for me with using the OTC as needed. I have always dismissed the OTC in lieu of narcotics...........but they do work (OTC)...., given the chance.

Good luck!

Rhea, reading the post by LoveJwhite and what her friend was taking focusing on increasing the ltryptophan levels... i remembered some journals i have read about it..... from worried787... i would advice everybody to read her journals cause she have some of the best info i have read here about addiction and all the issues concerning us, i give her the highest credit for this.

ok, i have looked for this journal and i gonna post the links here so that all the people with fybromialgia can read it too...and you too ; Rhea :)

Thank you Lady Rhea for your question and now we all are benefitting from these answers. I have an "addiction" question. Why don't I go to the store and buy myself vitamins? Why don't I spend the same amount I did on pills on a massage once a week? Why am I drawn to things that are  illegal, stupid, or even slightly on the edge? Ibruprophen is a big help. I need to take it when I am hurting. Anyway, I'm gonna get me some cal/mag Vitamin D and other WHOLE-istic things.  Wholely grateful, Lindsay

I dont think you are supposed to take the 5htp and sam-e  at the same time so check that out just to make sure. Good luck!
