I told myself this year I am to take better care of myself!!! So far I've been very slow at it ( for obvious reasons) NO more excuses; I am my top priority!
So please tell me what it is that helps you feel better and relaxed or pampered??! Do you use expensive/quality shampoo conditioner??? Get you nails done??
Button line what's your "GO-To" for self care???? Beyond medication.

On as we all know one symptom of fibromyalgia is dry skin
Well mine is beyond dry and gets to the point of cracking and bleeding and nothing I use seems to work
What sis the best moisturiser to use for extremely dry skin
I’ve tried Vaseline intensive care and now using Nivea but to no avail

I tried the conditioner all over my body and I have to say that really does help. Thanks for that tip.
Hope you're having a good day.

Hi all, I am newly diagnosed. I seek Naturopathic care for most everything. My PM&R Doctor wants to put me on Lyrica. Who has tried it and which of the three do you take now? Thanks!
Lyrica made me a zombie, made me more depressed. Please look for different option. Really, not kidding. (((hugs)))
I’m just curious if anyone can share they have knowledge or experienced any of the results from a CPAP, which mine came back pretty severe.. then I had an oxygen test done and it’s coming back that I need home oxygen care just curious what your experiences strength and a little bit of hope we all need
Thank you so much I appreciate it
Right now I live with my mom and her boyfriend, my mom is essentially an unpaid caregiver for me. I'm hoping to move out but I don't think I could be completely independent on my own. I've been looking into the process of getting a caregiver, and I'm planning on my mom sticking with being my caregiver, just getting paid for it finally. Does anyone else here have a caregiver, officially or unofficially? What are your experiences like?
Where are people with fibro doing since this happened?
Yes. Musculoskeletal neurologist is who I see. He is great and knowledgeable.
Hi everybody I just want to ask as anybody been dynnosed by a consultant for there condition.
Then refer back to your local Doctor to manage your pain?
If so have you been question by ESA medical assessment if you are still under care from consultants.
And if not why and GP does not count managing your care?
ask the doctor to refer you to pain clinic
e.s.a assessment give them the consultants name and they will deal with it x
The fibro pain is overlayed with this sensation. I went to dr, and blood pressure is high. 140/90. I’m always in the 120’s 70’s. Is this high blood pressure sensation? I have NO insurance, and now my primary care dr is sending me to a neurologist. I can’t afford wild goose chases, any thoughts anyone. Thank you for any answers.
Sometimes jerks wake me up at night.
