Fibromyalgia And Fatigue To The Point Of Almost Passing Out
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone else experience severe fatigue to where you almost pass out and even walking to the kitchen exhausts you? When I say exhausts, I mean that you have to sit down. I get this from everything these past few days. So hard to do anything at all. I have a history of fainting (not diagnosed) and the fatigue I get from time to time, but these past two days have been the worst ever!

I think I know how you feel. When things get too much, I feel like if I don’t lay down right now!-even if I’m out in public. I feel like I will die if I can’t lay down, I just can’t go on.

Does Anyone Else Get Like This?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I woke up tired (nothing new), i really wanted a nap all day but i pushed through. Around 4pm I felt better and started to organize my pantry but then i felt nauseous and lightheaded so i sat down.

I cant get comfortable at all.

Does Anyone Use Any Of The Delivery Meal Kits/ready-made Meals?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I want to change my eating lifestyle to pescatarian, low-carb. My family is a meat-eating family and I don't want to make them change theirs unless they want to. But, I can't make 2 different meals. I plan on meal prepping for myself but I would also like to already have some stuff in my freezer for when I can't do my own. Has anyone used any of those like Hello Fresh? Or, if you find stuff at your local stores, what do you get? What stores? I know we all have different stores but I'd… read more

Does Anyone Notice Vision Changes In Some Kinds Of Lighting?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

For a long time, I've noticed my vision seems blurred, or dimmed, after being in some stores. This is especially true in the "big box" stores. Eyes feel drier, too.

This happened before and after my cataract surgery. New prescriptions for my glasses made no difference.
Just wondering if it could be fibro related, or another problem.🤔

My wonderful opthamologist said my eyes were healthy.
Sadly, he was killed in an accident in late 2022.😢

Hi Ann, blurry vision and scratchy dry eyes are one of the symptoms of fibromyalgia. I would suggest you get an eye lubricant, it would be nice if you could find a new ophthalmologist... I'm so sorry… read more
