I have alot of anxiety and have it alot longer then I have had the Fibro. I was just DX with Fibro in April. I was Dx with Bipolar many years ago and just this year found out from a new DR. that I have anxiety not bipolar and that is why I never felt like I was stable and my dr never got my meds to work. I have to deal with every day. I cant stand being in the car unless I am driving but I scare the crap out of my self now with all the meds I am on so I try not to drive. I have being alone and we had to put our dog down a few months ago and cant aford another one right now so I am alone alot now. Then I have all the bad thoughts with my husdand is he lying to my, is he cheating on me, any thing that I could think of I do oh he late the car must have broke down and he is stuck or he got hit and is hurt and cant call and did not have his walit on him. you name I think of it.

Topic: RE: i need support please
I had my RNY in 2009 and was just DX with Fibro in april. I was 470 and am now at 297. I have found that many of the pills have not worked and as you said we cant take the Nsaids so that makes it a bit harder. I am in Canada and I get Caesament (not sure on spelling) it is a fake THC pill. When I first started taking it I noticed I was not as sore in the morning and by the afternoon I would be in full pain. I asked if I could take a pill 2 times a day so see if it helped better if I took one in the morning. And it did I had no pain at all if I over did it witch I did all the time then I would be sore and be in bed after dinner and in pain. I found that I would have the spinns really bad all day when I took it in the morning and now I take them both at bed time. I dont find it helps as much. I think that the RNY may have been what caused the Fibro but dont know for sure but I would still have it done. My live is some much better with out the weight but with the Fibro then it was with the weight and no Fibro. I even have a bad case of it so I have been told by friend and family that also have it.

My ex just came and picked up our son and of course he had to give me hell. I have been in excruiating pain for the last two days, to the point that I am mad at the world am walking stooped over and to even think about going downstairs hurts, anyways he said that I am acting this way because I want him to give me more money (he never pays all his child support or court ordered payments on other stuff). I just looked at him and said he isnt worth it and walked back into the house. At least, I have a couple hours where I have some quiet time in the house and maybe I can get it together. I hate these days. The pain pills are giving me an ulcer, my stomach hurts. There has to be away to take out the pain without the amount of pills we have to take. Has anyone tried acupuncture? does it work? I saw an ad on TV for some miracle device that is supposed to help people in constant pain, its like a tranction machine, but it looks like it would cause more pain then what we are in. LOL!
Topic: RE: Question regarding WLS and fibro, chronic pain
I have no regrets about the surgery at all.
I take demerol and phenergan for the pain (I have several chronic pain conditions).
Sadly, Cymbalta did not help me at all.
I am not able to work anymore do to a myriad of health problems but hope to return in the next several months if possible.
Good luck to you!!

I'm very fortunate that I don't seem to have anxiety but I have worked hard to eliminate the people that brought stress into my life so that all I have to deal with is what I bring myself and I try to keep that at a limit. Being a Christian I try to turn all my issues over to God, He handles them much better than I do. I make a point of keeping calm and serenity in my life. You may need some medication to help bring the anxiety down some, there is no shame in that. You sound like a busy mom and that doesn't help but just try to take life one day or minute at a time. It's easy to get overwhelmed!
Topic: RE: Question regarding WLS and fibro, chronic pain
I was all determined to get the lap band till I started reading all the bad posts and revisions needed, I may go ahead and get the RNY afterall. I also have FM since 1999 after a major infection after a breast reduction, my question is.... I know after RNY you can't take NSAIDS what do you take for the fibro pain, I am on Cymbalta but often need 800 mgs of Ibuphofine (sp) to cut the pain, please answer thanks and hope to hear from you PS any regrets about your WLS ??? How long did you need to be off work after your RNY SX??? Thank you Laura
