I have Fibromyalgia, Gout, Arthritis, Chronic Fatigue , Sleep Apnea, Acid Reflux, amongst other ailments. I have been using Oxycodone and Aleve, in combination when the pain gets "unbearable only". I have extreme sensitivities to all pain and inflammatory meds. My Dr. put me on Lyrica at half the normal dose to start. After four days I had to stop taking it because I was unable to sleep and was dizzy and nauseated all the time, and unable to function in any mental capacity. This happens with the Oxycodone also, to some extent, but I only take it a couple of days or three at the most.
I have however just started a treatment that is doing miracles for me. I am receiving Chelation Therapy, for the heavy metals in my blood and vitamins along with the EDTA, twice a week and also having Upper Cervical Chiropractic adjustments done. From the very first adjustment I walked out of the office almost completely pain free, when I could barely even walk into the office. Do yourself a big favor and find a reputable Cervical Chiropractor.
