I no longer take any medication for my condition because of several different reasons, mostly related to their availability, though I do take some supplements for my sleep. I don't think there's anything against mentioning specific meds or anything either but I generally don't specify unless people ask.

Don't let your fibro (or the meds) dissuade you from the idea that you can have good dream recall. Sure, I'm having some trouble concentrating even just writing this now, but I have been going through a really strong period of fatigue. But because I'm keeping my intent to recall and write dreams down when I wake up, I am being able to keep my recall quite decent.

Thanks for the welcome DarkestDarkness and sorry you gotta deal with fibro yourself. I fortunately get a decent amount of sleep due to the medicine I take, if I don't take something, I will sleep 2 hours straight then on and off the rest of the night. Before I knew I had fibro, I slept like that for 10 years. It was usually blamed on my depression issues.

Since I have been using a dream journal and using affirmations to remember my dreams I've been having decent recall. The last few nights before last night, my recall wasn't happening, then last night I remembered about 3 dreams in decent detail. I've only been at this a month and a few days and i'm happy with my recall results so far.

Since I started again I've had one wbtb LD, totally on accident but still very cool and I had one dream were I LD'd 3 times in it. That was frustrating but still cool.

Thanks again and I hope you find some relief, fatigue is no joke.
