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!

Hey Guys,, Does Anyone In The UK Claim PIP For Fibromyalgia, If So Please Can I Ask What Rate You Receive?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have recently reported a change of circumstances and my entitlement hasn't changed. I suffer with several other medical conditions which entitles me to standard rate of care. Having fibromyalgia has made those conditions worse and easier triggered due to fibro flares and the all over general pain. I barely leave my home and most days are spent in bed.

Any Read The Fibro Manual By Ginevra Liptan?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I recently found out about this book. Ordered it on amazon for $15($7 on kindle). Came yesterday. Holy crap! It is so informative.

Has Anyone Used A Bible Or Devotional When You Have Dark Thoughts.
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’m thinking it would help turn your dark thoughts around. My friend suggested it, cuz she is an evangelist pastor. Also, it’s less than a therapist would be too. Please, let me know what you think. God bless u all.
