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!
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
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.
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

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 😢
Smells get so bad sometimes, sets my allergies off so bad. Sometimes i get nausea exspecialy the smell of carmel. I can smell things others cant and people look at me strange. And there are days my… read more
