Dear friend,not because of fibrocytis ,your mother is very much overweight if we considr her height and age.so ,continuation of that medicine can be considered but you have to keep in mind that excessive weight is putting pressure othe muscles that are attached to vertebral column and pelvic bone causing pain.losing some weight will really help her to alleviate this pain.my best wishes for her.thank you.
