You don't. You can only do your best to mitigate the pain with meds, and, for some folks, exercise and weight loss can help combat the pain..

So far, they have not found a cure. Probably because they aren't even sure what causes it. As of right now, they can only treat the symptoms. Try to relax and not get upset, because that does make it worse. Take frequent rest periods. Take your medicine. Good luck to you.

That's my life right now.

Fibromyalgia itself cannot be cured, but the symptoms can be treated. Medications such as analgesics and antidepressants can help with pain management. Proper nutrition, exercise and sleeping habits also play important roles in treatment. Finally, a wide range of complementary treatments (e.g., massage, acupuncture, relaxation techniques, biofeedback, hypnosis) may also help. Many individuals have trouble coping with fibromyalgia and may find help in psychological counseling and support groups.
