I am on numerous medications for pain management, fibromyalgia, and nerve damage. Are these types of medications causing my weight gain, and bloating?

Saka, If any of your medications contain sodium, like Naprosyn does, you could be retaining water. You really should see your doctor to discuss this. The doctor may give you a water pill, or change your pain meds. Please go soon, so you won't be suffering longer than you have to.

They very well could be. Many of the drugs used to treat FMS, cause swelling, bloating and weight gain. Talk to your doctor about possibly putting you on different medication, if the weight gain and water retention is substantial.
