Hey i think the reason how it gets harder is not because we no what its called but because it gets harder as we have been in pain for so long and it seams to get worse each time i have a flair my boddy just feels like its had enuff and wants to stop only so much pain you can cope with sending you hugs xxx

Check your tongue and see if it has a white film on it. That means you have candida (bad bacteria) take probiotics and cut sugar

I think it gets harder as time goes on because we get older. Natural progression.

Me too @A MyFibroTeam Member. Same feeling when I have some even gently browned toast - as if my tongue had been scorched. How weird..Never connected it to fibro before. Just shows how helpful this interchange of information is.

A MyFibro...

I think for me, the flares and other symptoms got worse as I aged. I believe fibro is a progressive monster. I worked until I just couldn't do it anymore. I would love to be able to get out and work. But, as we all know, we never know how we are going to feel day to day, sometimes hour by hour. No employer would keep me. And, the brain fog....I would mess up and get fired.
As for the swollen tounge, I don't get a swollen feeling, when I eat kiwi, my tounge burns and kind of itches. I think I may be allergic? I do have issues with swallowing sometimes and swallow the wrong way and end up coughing.
