You might have fybro if you are going somewhere with your friends and you are not driving and forget where you are going and have to think about it for five minutes.
You might have fybro if sleeping is your hobby. :)
You yell OUCH going up a flight of stairs but forget why by the time you reach the top....
You might have firbo if you walk into the kitchen stand there for 5 minutes just to remember you were actually on your way to the bathroom.
You might have fibro when you are watching one of your favorite shows and 2 seconds after a commercial comes on you can't remember what you are watching.
You might have fibro when your 7 year old has to remind you of everything you are supposed to do because no matter how many lists you have you can't remember to look at them.
I know they aren't that funny but eh lol
Me: Omg, what the heck, I hate how I"m always losing things when my fibro fog is acting up!
Mom: What did you lose?
Me: The stupid phone. I cannot find it anywhere!
Mom: Sweetie...you're talking to me on the phone.
Sure enough, I had it crammed between my shoulder and ear while stomping around looking for the phone! >.
Yep sadly enough, it's a TRUE story!
Take Care, Dawn
You try to order General Tso's from the Chinese restaurant and the only thing you can think of is to say to the lady on the other end of the phone..."You know the chicken one"
"Nope, lots of chicken ones"
"You know the one with the Soldiers"
She was very patient, after about 3 minutes of going back and forth, we finally figured it out.
I was surprised that they actually made my order and didn't think I was some wacko trying to prank call them.
