CYCLOBENZAPRINE vs DICLOFENAC

I have been in pain management for 2 years following a bad mva. Ive had 5 surgeries, have surgery #6 in a week and a half and surgery #7 at the end of December. My current rx is 20mg a day of oxycodone (I only take 10-15 and am saving the rest for surgery in 10 days), 10mg a day of cyclobenzaprine

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia (FM) in December 2023. There are 200+ symptoms and comorbidities of fibromyalgia varying both in number and intensity from person to person. I'll share with you what I know. It's believed that FM is neurological in nature, caused by problems with the nervous system.

https://ir.tonixpharma.com/ I can’t help but get my hopes up for this drug I’ve been keeping watch on for years. He goes into so much detail for all of us curious. He does seem absolutely confident in FDA approval August 15. Expanded the workforce massively in preparation. Drug would be aimed for Q4

I find it to alleviate my back pain, but I wish it penetrated deeper into the area by the bone. Works great but I just don’t like the heavy sedation.. wish I had a Analgesic drug along with it. Best I can do is poppy seed tea. I know where to get dope but I don’t mess around with that anymore. I nee

I need to vent and also get some feedback from people who have knowledge on the subject. Going a little crazy here 😅 I have lupus, fibro and Raynaud's. All formally diagnosed. Also have depression and ADHD. I'm on cyclobenzaprine for the fibro, venlafaxine for depression, hydroxychloroquine and NS

All 3 referrals I've had so far resulted in denials, on 900mg gabapentin 3 x daily, duloxetine 60mg per day, naproxen 500mg 2 x daily, cyclobenzaprine 10mg 2 x daily. Drink 3-5 shots a night and smoke and vape 50/50 weed thc and cbd mix throughout the day to keep me sane. Have to lie down for hours

I've been on Norco, cyclobenzaprine, and gabapentin for my severe neck and back pain for a significant number of years. It's the only thing that let's me function and continue to work. My pharmacy like others has been out of Norco for months, and only because my wife had recent surgery did I become

Hello reddit and fellow chronic pain people.

First I want to preface this by saying everyone's pain is different and pain meds are a totally valid treatment. A couple months ago I finally decided to do a spinal cord stimulator for my low back and down the leg sciatic pain. And especially the severe pain in my hip from this. Four months on I ha

My doctors told me I have mild inflammation in my bladder. I can't take ibuprofen, so I was prescribed Prednisone for a while, then Diclofenac. Neither helped. I do drink around a gallon of water everyday but I will spend hours in the bathroom. Just peeing. It's usually in little spurts but everytim

I gave it about a week with some Diclofenac. 23 years later...

I have arthritis, chronic fatigue, and chronic headaches. Sometimes just walking down the hall is hard as my knees scream at me with every step. It's hard to function when my body is telling me I need fourteen hours of sleep a day. And the headache never. Fully. Stops. And I just had to listen to f

I went to the ER today after my doctor worried that I might have Cauda Equina (negative), and the ER attending suggested that I try Diclofenac to manage my nerve pain as I wait for a diagnosis (it's been a year into testing, next up are nerve conduction tests and EMGs). I told him that I had previou

Desperate for any help, i decided to try this. Supposed to give it a week. I have only used it since yesterday. It is a topical NSAID so I never bothered with it. Needs reapplication every 4 hrs in the US and not labeled for back (just extremities). It really seems to be doing something so for now I
