Low Carb Diet
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

So the fibromyalgia diet hasn't changed my symptoms at all. I've been on it for 6 months. My dr wants me to try the low carb diet. Less than 20 carbs per day. Has anyone tried the low carb diet? Did it help your symptoms?

I Have A Question For Anyone In Las Vegas NV.
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hubby and I are taking my rheumatologist's advice and moving from Seattle to Las Vegas. The barometric pressure is much much more stable there and I understand that I will feel much better there. I am looking for a rheumatologist in the Las Vegas area to take over my care - does anyone out there have any recommendations? We will arrive there later this week. I will also be looking for a pain doc but figure the rheumatologist will be able to refer me. Thanks everyone!

Does Anyone Know Of A Good Rheumatologist Around Las Vegas Or Neighboring States That Is Drivable?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Moved to Las Vegas about 9 months ago and was able to keep my Rheumatologist in Maryland, but now she thinks I might need to find one local. I’ve called around but most are no longer taking new patients. So do you know a good Rheumatologist around the area? I’m willing to drive even to California/ Utah/ Arizona. Thanks

What The Health? What The...
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I will be watching this documentary on Netflix; however, I wish people would stop telling me that I need to watch it. They are like, if anybody needs to watch it, I do😩 Really? These same people barely check on me and never ask me about fibromyalgia and how I deal with it currently. Have you experienced this?
