    • About Me

      Retired professional. Married 30 years. Love the outdoors, horseback riding, fishing, walking with my german shepherd Amara. I believe that each day is a gift to us and I try and live it to the fullest. During a fibro-flare, I try and focus on the good things I will do again when I am feeling better. Having this illness has taught me so many things. But the biggest has been to appreciate the little things with the greatest joy. Also I have found inner strength that I never knew I had.

      From Bluesydeb May 18, 2008

      Hi there! Hope you are having a good week! I agree with what you said about the vulgar language in one of the discussion board posts. It offends me too. There are a lot of ways to vent frustration and anger without swearing. I think these folks are nice and just don't realize how it affects some people. At least, that is what I choose to believe. Soft hugs, Deb

      Treatments

      Heat Working / Worked
      I use heat all the time. Heating pads, heating blankets and heated wraps. Heat is my best friend.
      Ultram Working / Worked
      Works with light flares.
      Zanaflex Working / Worked
      Not as helpful as it used to be.
      Hydrocodone Working / Worked
      Gets me up and moving and able to perform daily activities. Also helps when I am having those big flares, when I feel like I have been run over by a truck. It makes me sleepy, but is worth it to feel relief from overwhelming pain.
