As a fellow chronic pain sufferer, I really am sorry you have to deal with this! A friend of mine has fibromyalgia, and it is terrible. I’ve read that taking guaifenesin can be helpful. http://fibromyalgiatreatment.com/GuaiProtocol.htm
Other than that, heat, pilates, and massage. I hope you find some relief.

I truly feel for you as I am a chronic pain sufferer too. They don’t know what causes my muscle spasms either, but say it is some sort of genetic nerve/muscle thingy.
I think mine may be either hematochromatosis (hemochromatosis) or adult onset Pompe’s disease (a mitrochondrial disease), but I can’t even get the Doctor’s to test me for either one.
They wonder why some people go and seek out the Black Market for their pain control, but I understand.
Yet, I have never done that, even though I’m expected to try and control this nonsense with Advil or Tylenol.
The medication they finally did give me for my daily migraines can only be taken three days in any given month or it causes too much liver damage. So, you sit there and try and figure out if this headache is bad enough to take your pills that day or if you can somehow suffer through it. I mean you can only pick out three days in any month to take them. Stupid, right?
