I read your question and I understand your concern.

It is safe if you are in pain to take Motrin or Tramadol, either one is alright to be used for your symtoms. I notice that you don't mention any antidepressant in your regular treatment (amitriptyline, doxepine), usually they are used in the treatment of fibromyalgia, you should discuss their use with your doctor.

I hope to have been of help.
