Suggest Treatment For Fibromyalgia And Spinal Stenosis

Hello, I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and spinal stenosis. I currently am taking Tylenol 3s and have been for almost a year. I take 6-8 a day, and I have done a lot of research, and feel that tramadol would be a better option for me (it worked well for me in the past). I am afraid that my doctor will label me as drug seeking, but I am not getting adequate relief from Tylenol 3, and I do not want to go back on Cymbalta or lyrica, as I gained a lot of weight from those meds. What are your thoughts? I am wanting to make a doctors appointment soon...
