So yesterday I noticed just how bad my sensitivity to light has gotten. Not indoor lights so much as sunlight. We went to the store, and in the 15 minutes it took to drive there, I developed a raging headahe, my eyes hurt, and I was soooo crabby! I had to apologize because I got so snappy with my SO. Fortunately he understands, but I feel like a heel.
Anyone else notice this? I don't remember reading about this as an issu before. This is gonna drive me bonkers. Even with shades on, the sun is too bright. I rode to and from town today with my shades on and eyes closed...
*grumble* Fibro is SO weird and random! Please tell me someone else knows what I'm talking about here! I know I'm nuts (crazy is fun!) but this can't be just me...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Alot of people also seem to be sensitive to loud noises as well. They bother me a little, but I can handle the noise a bit better than I can the lights.
Sorry to tell you that it's something we gotta live with, but at least you know you're not crazy or alone! :)

My eye doc says he has never seen anyone's eyes react so quickly and strongly to light as mine do. He has even has to use a different med when he dilates my eyes because the times they used usually med, my eyes stayed dilated almost 2 days!
Even indoors, I try to not use a lot of lights...family says I can see in the dark!!
