If I don't take muscle relaxer at night, I'm up multiple times with cramps in my feet & calves. That's on top of magnesium and using heat

Ok My Lovies- As Requested And Several Been Waiting For- It Is Time. What Are Your Favorite Shows?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hit me with all of them.
Old- new
Finished series or canceled one. Any genre too!

Only loose rule I have is if you happen to know where it is , try and list that too.

So many streaming services and they all now make original shows and movies.

But it's a loose rule, I won't get out ruler and swat your hands or anything if you don't.

Ready, set, go!

I Went From Chronic Fatigue With Fibro Over Sleeping, Exhausted...to Not Being Able To Sleep At All Maybe 3 Hours. Any Suggestions?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
A MyFibroTeam Member

Same here, but, the sleeping part, comes and goes. Most nights, 3-4 hrs sleep. This even happened when I was working. Sleep problems are common with fibro, and other chronic ailments.

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 💭

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 💭

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.
