>1. They use tricyclic ads low dose for this
2. The anti convulsants.... Most used are neurontin and lyrica
3. last case the opiatesI don't have enough pressure points to be fibro but maybe secondary fibro...Also have lumbar stenosis and arthritis in the right hip
The tricyclics never did anything for the pain.Neurontin and lyrica helped...Neurontin pooped out and now lyrica pooped..so I am forced to use to opiates for now...
The clomipramine does help with mood at 50 mg.
