What Do You Do For Exercise? Do You Push Yourself, How Do You Feel The Next Day? Do You Take Pain Meds Just To Exercise?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi All Y'all
I've been avoiding any strenuous exercise for about 6 months and paid for it with weight gain and myscle loss. I've tried walking, aerobics, water exercise classes, yoga and I'd about given up until I decided I needed to get busy and do something.

Yesterday I made my husband go with me to a Beginning Yoga class at our church. I was skeptical as the last yoga instructor we had put us through rigorous and rapid asanas or sequences of poses. I couldn't keep up with the class. The… read more

Getting It Wrong; Anyone Else Gettng Words Wrong?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I know we all complain of mixing up words, getting them wrong, not being able to find the right word etc Our friends and family joke with us/at us about it. But do any of you get it wrong when writing or typing? I am an accomplished touch typist (just one of my many skills lol - said in a jokey voice) but lately when I read back what I have typed it is a complete jumble of letters, often you can't read what I've typed. Often my girls will reply to me 'What??!!after I have messaged them, when I… read more

Does Anyone Experience Memory Loss As A Result Of Fibromyalgia Or The Medication
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I was first diagnosed with fibro in 2006 following on from a 2 year period of Polymyalgia Rheumatica. Since being diagnosed, I have had my medication constantly under review due to the fluctuating nature of the pains and immobility difficulties. The pain can be totally unbearable on days, and I cannot function at all. On other days I am able to cope reasonably well and can work through the pains. However, I have been attending my doctor surgery recently with loss of memory, and the tests I… read more

Memory Loss
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi all,
I’m just curious how many other people experience memory loss. Mine has increased two fold and it’s almost scary! I’ll go to movies and not only forget what it was about two days late, but I will forget I saw it all together! I could go on and on but I feel like I have early on set Alzheimer’s!

Anyone else experience this?
