CF and Fibromyalgia

I am 47 and was recently diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I have been experiencing pain in my back, arms, hands, and hips. I was told to find a Rheumatologist.

They then sent me for multiple xrays. Showed I have osteoarthritis and loss of c spine curvature. I have tried Lyrica that didn't work but between that Trikafta I gained a bunch weight. I was taken off of Lyrica and am currently trying Cymbalta. I'm trying to exercise but was told to not over do it because that can be worse on the body. My body hurts so much it hurts to touch at times.
