I Found, Contact Forms For The Ppl In Charge Of Here Site-Who Wants Me To Request Under "new Feature" We All Get Our Favorite Snacks?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

I'm obviously kidding but-
There's just more than new feature we could actually fill out.

But I'd like to submit a thing or 2. Even if it includes they send us our fav comfort food 1x a month- cuz milkshakes are happiness and I will battle via canes pretending to be light sabers to anyone who disagrees

So let me know!

Peter Straub for authors. He wrote, together with Stephen King, the Talisman I prefer his earlier works.

Well, I Asked About Comedians/stand Ups, Now, How About Movie Recommendations? (I'll Do Shows Next Lol)
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Hit me up with your fav movies. I'm mostly couch/bed bound and could use something to watch. I like just about everything except right now I don't think I can do foreign films I have to read nor ones I have to pay super close attention. Fibro fog , pain etc makes it kinda hard to watch something that requires me on edge of my seat following hard plot lines
Love just about everything else. Including rom coms , horror and probably an endless list of 80s /90s movies cuz that's the decades I grew… read more

Tests are oh so fun, right? Lol

Sorry you had to to go thru that.

Most tests don't show much often. Fibromyalgia is more an illness that's a "catch-all" to say we tested you for everything and you… read more

I'm So Tired Of My Leg Pain. I Don't Know What To Do
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­
A MyFibroTeam Member

I'm so sorry, I feel the same way. My legs have always been my biggest problem area with fibro. If the pain is muscular (like mine usually is) then topical magnesium can be really helpful, since it… read more

Can Any One Recommend A Free Video Or Whatever For Doing Light Stretching Or Yoga For Seniors Or Something?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

I know I can go on YouTube and look up what I'm asking but there's way too many to go thru.

I just need someone to guide me a little bit. I tried water physical therapy but I don't know if it was the therapists or what but they had me doing waaaay too much and seemed to have too many patients at one time.

I have couple articles explaining decent stretches and/or very light yoga-ish type things but I think I'd maybe do it more if I had a video or something to go along with it
I could use… read more

Comedians?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Does anyone have any favs to recommend. I like stand up comedians and sometimes watch when I'm laid up couch/bed bound. That is when I'm not super depressed and cursing the universe-

What Are "teams" For? Are We Plotting A Fibro Showdown Between All The Groups? Lol
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Some ppl seem to have teams of like 8 ppl, others thousands.

I'm going to assume it's not so we go toe to toe in symptoms battles. πŸ™ƒ

I can see when ppl message each other and/or post/ ask a Q under "All activity". So,

It doesn't appear to be typical "friends list" like other social media-etc. Although, this whole site doesn't seem to work like most current social media, more like circa message boards back from when AOL was giving out free internet trial discsπŸ€”

Does Anyone Have Any Tips To Make Morning Stiffness/ Getting Out Of Bed Easier?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

I struggle with morning stiffness so bad that before fibro I could only describe waking up in the morning as being so tired it hurts, but it literally does hurt! Morning stiffness plus sleeping problems makes waking up and getting out of bed the hardest part of the day.

πŸ’– I hope it helps dear.
No guarantees πŸ˜‰
Love,
Deb 😘
