Visible Veins?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone.
I don't know if this is related to fibro or not but I just want to know if anybody has visible veins on the abdomen? I have two green veins on each side that comes from the leg.

Anyone Here Use Marijuana Or Any Derivative Of It For Their Pain?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have zero knowledge or experience with marijuana. Its now legal here and easy to get so I have to say I am more than curious if it can help me. I have chronic back pain with severe muscle spasms and joint pain. I have been off work for 5 months now due to my pain. Does anyone have any advice? What method of using is best? Any strain in particular help? CBD to THC ratios? Does it help anyone here?
Thanks

Hernias ×6+
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I'm going to be having a "complicated" surgery by a specialist for 6 or more hernias. I'm nervous.
Is it going to heal???
How long will I miss work?
I will be at a hospital 1.5 hrs. Away from family.
I'm usually brave but not lately. I just turned 58 and am grateful for every single day!
Any advice or prayers, encouragement appreciated.
God bless 🙌

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I'm reaching out to members who may have had an asymptomatic case of covid or such a mild case they initially thought it was something else like allergies.

I have never had covid that I know of so I had a conversation with both my doctor and a nurse. They both said that statistically at this point in the pandemic that I "probably" had an asymptomatic case of covid. The nurse pointed out that the amount of the viral load would have also made a difference and the fact that I wear masks… read more
