Fibromyalgia Support Group
You're not alone in your pain. Fibromyalgia is a condition that can be difficult to diagnose and manage. If you're trying to cope with pain throughout your body, sleep problems, general fatigue, or other common fibromyalgia symptoms, you're in the right place. The community is here for you to talk about therapies and share your challenges.
I am not one of those people who is averse to change. I typically embrace it fairly quickly. But this site redesign is just not for me. It feels bulky, requires too much scrolling, and requires more work to get a good sense of recent posts. I suppose I will have to get used to it, but for some reason it feels less like a friendly place. Also, this is the kind of post that I would have put somewhere else in the old forum. Haven't figured out if there is a way to do that in this forum yet.

I'nm exhausted. This doxycycline thing has ripped me apart and I'm eating crackers and water. I can't take (anything) or eat (anything) except saltines and toast and maybe unbuttered watery mashed potatoes. Are we sure the cure isn't worse than the possible disease?!?!And a week to go. ***Fun cures that WERE worse than the disease:ARsenic. Popular against STDs, which just compounded misery...

ANd I'm sick of logging in over and over every time I want to post to another group in the same sitting or my post evaporates??
I miss how you can hover the mouse over someone's name and a little box popped up, click "hug" and dish out like a dozen hugs in 5 mins. Now you have to click on their profile to give them a hug and then go search for the next person. It takes like an hour to dish out a few hugs to people because some of them might not be on your friends list and you have to go look up that group again and search for the thread again. Such a pain. I dont' send out too many anymore these days because of this. Is there an easier way and I just dont know what I am doing? Someone please tell me.
BlueSky, I don't know an easier way. For me, hugs were a very important part of being in this group! It was a simple yet meaningful way of showing support for my fellow fibromites. I really hope they fix these things. I know I love being part of this group, but I have sort of been avoiding coming here lately.
