Reynaud Gloves
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I recently found some touch screen gloves for reynaud's sufferers. I love mine. They are woven with copper throughout the glove so the entire finger works the touch screen and not just the tip. They come in regular all year weight and winter weight. They do run a tad large since they are men's sizes but they're wonderful. Check them out. Glider gloves.com.

Tanx for this suggestion, as I was wondering if any copper~type assistance would help!

To All Of My Fellow Edmontonians.Do Any Of You Have A Great FM/CFS Doctor That Will Take On My Son For And Myself?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Our doctor refuses to even consider any pain meds even though lots of people on this forum say that different ones help them. My son had negative reactions to Lyrica and Cymbalta. He needs to be able to function even just a little. We're still going to keep investigating new things, but just to help until I've found something.

@A MyFibroTeam Member I actually went there to meet with a doctor. I didn't like that I was basically forced to either book to see them or travel to the Miseracordia. I told the doctor that I saw that… read more

Has Anyone Experienced Parathesia? One Of My Symptoms Was A Feeling Under The Skin Like Something Was Trying To Crawl Out From The Inside.
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
A MyFibroTeam Member

Thanks for putting a name on this symptom! I've experienced it in the past and it becomes cramps. Unbearable cramping that climbs from my feet upward.

Cymbalta
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am switching from prozac to cymbalta. I will fully be on it in about 2 weeks at 90 mgs. About long did it take others to start to feel a difference in how they felt?

A MyFibroTeam Member

If I recall correctly I believe that I gained 30 or so pounds on this med so we changed it.

Can You Share Your Experience With Reducing The Dosage Of Cymbalta & Lyrica? Or Stopping Them Altogether? Thanks.
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I've been taking Cymbalta AM (60mg) & Lyrica EVE(75mg) regularly for fibro for the past 2 years. My symptoms improved to a large degree once my body adjusted to the current dosage. I'm noticing the weight gain, partly b/c of less physical activity, and the effect on my vision. I have developed very dry eye condition and as a result blurry vision. I need to use eye drops a couple time a day. I also know that they might affect your liver long term. So, I'm wondering if there are other medications… read more

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have you name it, all the bad symptoms of fibromyalgia & I'm not able to hold a full time job. I have had this for 24 years now. I also have severe depression because I have lost my purpose of raising 2 daughters that are adults now. How do fibromyalgia people make it financially by themselves?

Smells Nobody Else Can Smell
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I know a lot of us struggle with chemicals such as perfumes etc but does anyone get smells occurring that nobody else can smell at all?

A recurring one for me is a mint/menthol smell, nobody else smells it but it stings my nose, eyes, throat etc

I have pretty much stripped the house and can’t find this smell and nobody else smells it. It’s almost as if it’s emitted from my body as it gets stronger when I get hot but still nobody smells it!

Help 😢

A MyFibroTeam Member
