Dear friends,

I just wanted to vent this last thing before I go to work. I often think of how

pills are so much a part of my life. It seems I depend on so many pills just to

get through life and work. (not all prescriptions but the endless vitamins,

supplements, and anything I think will help. Including adding non prescription

meds like naproxen or aspirin for inflammation of my right shoulder). On the

other hand, without them, fibro would have me down so far I would not be able to

move. So I really don't have choice here. And that is the truth. If not for the

meds, I would be in a hell of a mess. But it seems there is always some pill to

pop. The vicodin that I cannot do without becuase the fibro pain will triple.

The Lyrica now that seems to be the one drug that has actually tried to keep the

fibro at bay and decrease its never ending symptoms. The blood pressure

medication, the Xanax which I take less than I use to but sometimes my nerves

get so wound up I have to

take it. Then there is the Zoloft for depression that I have had for YEARS

before the fibro kicked my A$$. Then the calcium supplements, the Vit D, the

B12, the multivitamin etc. And lets not forget the muscle relaxers I take about

once a day because my damn muscles knot up so bad that I feel like I cannot

move.

I do wish I were healthy again. And stopping any of these medications would have

consequences. But you know, I will take them because it is my only lifeline with

the beast called FIBROMYALGIA that went 10 fold in the last 4 years.

Just venting. Anyone else feel like they are in a prison of pills????

love and hugs,

Debra V.
