Baclofen for fibromyalgia

For those who have found the illness a bit confusing - it's a real one. Fibromyalgia. Chronic pain gets in a way of a lot of things... But you can still do others.

to not be able to read this in one sitting. Damn Fibromyalgia flair-up showed up at the worst time. Well it took 2 days and it was better than I thought it would be. I'm a sucker for happy ending and w/Gene on the wagon and his secret finally out, the family is starting to become just that a family once again. Ok Ok I know there is still Barb. But i think in the end...well I have a theroy on that, but I don't want to say it. I mean if I'm wrong I'll look so stupid...hehe-he.

it took me long enough. I hate fibromyalgia flare ups. It is hard enough to sit for more than 10-15 minutes let alone have a clear head to absorb what I'm reading. Well finally I finished and what a great job you did in closing everything up. Everyone is happy, the bad guys are in jail, and life is returning to normal if there is a normal for the Queen and King of the Vampire Nation. I also like how you left the story open so that if these wonderful characters won't stay out of your brain you can easily bring them back. Another fantastic story that I thank you for sharing.

Not once did you identify the main character had Fibromyalgia. until you responded with post story comments in response to criticism. Furthermore, there are times depending on many factors this condition varies in pain levels even throughout the day and some can deal with it better with medication where others not so fortunate. You never identify any details as to the serverity what efforts for easing might have been available to deal with this deabilitating condition. The fact you have the sister acting completely ignorant time and time again throughout this story in causing him physical pain is absolutely stupid and inconceivable. And then--- sending a roommate over to extol physical contact with no understanding is just plain dumb to boot. Lack prudent information and the tasks you ask the main character to ignore without proper communication of what all the parties to contend with is just lacking integrity and the story is just a complete flop. negative 100 stars.
I have numerous friends with different levels of this disabilitating condition and in every case each of the relationships are very intuned with their partners conditions and they are very keen about the knowing whether physical activity is not always possible with their partner. Very disappointed you be this ignorant to make this a vital part of the story and never reveal the said condtion only using vagueness for a very real critical piece of information.

As for everyone else ... life keeps adding on the 'happy' {sarcasm}.
My neurologist decided to prescribe a more powerful tool to manage the pain in my feet. So, he gave me a foot cream. What wasn't obvious was the non-prescribed 'side effects' of the foot cream which included ... (sigh) ...
Well, as my feet have been hurting like sons-a-bitches, I was slathering that cream on three and four times a day. It had minimal positive effect which was leagues ahead of the pain I was going through. Besides, it was foot cream. What was the worse that could happen?
Baclofen (2%) ~ [Lightheadedness or fainting, trouble seeing, severe tiredness, weakness],
Cyclobenzaprine (2%) ~ [Anxiety, restlessness, seeing or hearing things that are not there, severe drowsiness, fainting, or confusion],
Diclofenac (3%) ~ [Sudden or severe headache, or problems with vision, speech, or walking],
Gabapentin (6%) ~ [Behavior problems, aggression, restlessness, trouble concentrating, moodiness (especially in children), problems with coordination, shakiness, unsteadiness, unusual moods, or behaviors, thoughts of hurting yourself, feeling depressed, dizziness, drowsiness, sleepiness, tiredness],
Lidocaine (2%) ~ [which, somewhat stunningly, isn't trying to fuck with my head]
So I've been staggering around in a semi-lucid state for the past several days, unable to figure out why I couldn't do much, if any, writing. It took me complaining to my wife to provide some clarity.
I repeat - it is freaking foot cream!
I've stopped with the foot-crack and am back to dealing with the pain. Hopefully I'll be back to writing soon too.
