Another chemical that can help with pain caused by fibromyalgia is serotonin. Serotonin is a medicine used for moods, sleep disorder and pains. A person must make sure they are taking the correct amount of serotonin or they may have adverse reactions. The only great thing about serotonin is that is helps the pain subside for a while. Most people who are suffering from fibromyalgia have a higher stress life. There are antidepressants such as Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft, and Celexa to help the body remain at a lower stress level and lessen mood swings.

A person who is suffering from fibromyalgia should be asked how long they have had the disease. The doctor will then better know how to treat them.
