I need a stretching type class because I'm so bad at doing things to help my situation at home. My thigh muscles are much tighter than any others and it causes my knee caps to pull up. I have trouble with lounges and various other positions but when I stretch it helps.

I know this question got asked over a year ago, but I just want to re-flag it. Anyone else experience burning mouth pain from Fibro? Physical therapy has helped me a decent amount (by jumpstarting the nerves with a machine called an "Acuscope") but I am curious what others have done. I've had it for 7 months now and it is the worst pain I've ever felt. I don't take medications other than supplements so I know it's not a side effect. Any help would be appreciated!

I began getting a sore neck about three weeks ago it has since become unbearable. I'm not currently on any fibro meds and am really struggling with this. The pain is now causing headaches and anxiety issues. It feels as though my neck is swollen. I have been under a ton of stress so I'm not surprised I'm flaring! It's difficult to turn my head! Has anyone else ever experienced this and what did you do to ease the symptoms?
That’s awful! Absolutely unacceptable! I’ve been there and I’m glad you are no longer in that situation anymore. Should have had him thrown in jail. 😡
I work at a desk about 8-9 hours daily. By the days' end, my left shoulder is nearly jacked up to my neck! I have a hard knot where my neck meets my shoulder and this causes radiating pain and arm fatigue. Anyone else suffering from "desk syndtome"?

I ask because I have been having a burning sensation on the top of my head which is quite painful. It is as if a hot coal has been placed in that position. Ice pack dulls it a bit but it is not enough relieve. If anyone has the same please let me know what helps but most importantly does it happen normally with fibromyalgia? thanks

Illinois is one of our states that has legalized medical marijuana use for 39 illnesses including severe Fibromyalgia. I am asking my fellow flat landers and other legalized states if it has helped relieve your fibromyalgia pain and other symptoms. The more specific you be I'd very much appreciate it.
Sometimes I will eat gummies with thx to help my body relax and sleep. Not often but sometimes. It helps some

For the last month my skin has been so itchy everywhere. I have scratched and am getting scaring now.
I use Aveeno body wash in the shower, and Aveeno moisturiser when I get out.
I'm based in the UK.
Anyone have suggestions of any products or things I could try to get it to calm down?
Cool showers warmer showers and baths make itching worse, Benedryl, I take Hydroxyzine for anxiety but also helps with itching.
