Kate i'm not familiar with cranio sacral work so it looks like I'll need to do my homework or that one before I mention it. There are many ways to work on your central nervous system so you need to find the right tools that are comfortable and that you'll continue with. The goal is not to be perfect but helping you to manage. Just to let everyone know I was in fibromyalgia fog for 2 years before I started. I couldn't remember anything, I could not communicate well. I could not show emotions and I have always been an easily emotional person. So now when my emotions come back and I easily emote I know I am getting some of that back. So my tools which could be very different to others, I changed my diet to nutrient dense food and rarely anything artificial, artificial is just empty calories, it doesn't benefit you. Now I eat organic. I lost a lot of weight and I prefer the taste. I was previously connected to mindfulness and that came back easily I meditate. I pace. Previously I was a constant work out warrior and fibromyalgia is unable to process recovery. So I still workout but I don't use weights anymore at least not the 15-20lbs I was using. Now I pace my workout so it's kinder on me. I use Breathing exercises all the time. Your exhale breaths are most beneficial. It relaxes your vegus nerve. I would breath in a pattern and I got my sleep back. Now I sleep soundly and dream again. I don't take anything for sleep.At first I implemented magnesium malate which is one of the best magnesiums for fibromyalgia because it adheres to your system in the most beneficial way. I journal. I knew becoming a social worker that I needed to process . So it was another way to be able to voice what was happening. Gosh I'm probably missing so much more but you can do a search on central nervous system techniques. You can also get help from a therapist or someone who practices work with the cns. These are just some of the tools that worked for me. A couple of years ago I could have never written this but I'm still finding helpful tools.i wish you well. Don't hesitate to contact me if I can be of assistance in your journey☯️😉🌈
Is ringing in the ear (tinnitus) a symptom of fibromyalgia?
Yes, it can be! Fibromyalgia affects the central nervous system, which includes the brain, spinal cord, and the network of nerves throughout the body. Because of this, it can cause a range of sensory symptoms that go beyond just pain and fatigue.

Thank you for taking the time to write your ideas down. I appreciate it.
Oh Kate be careful with cranio sacrial work. That might’ve started your ears ringing.
Thanks heaps my blood pressure is good! so could you please expand @Liz23 on how you worked on your CNS? I've been doing some cranio sacral therapy which has been good but not since my ear started ringing.
