Hi Ladies and Gentlemen,
It dropped from 100 degrees out to 60 here in two days and my body is buzzing with a kind of pain that makes you panic. Is anyone else suffering from an extreme flare up right now? I can barely think. Ouch, I want it to stop just for a minute so I can breathe. xo

Many people with Fibromyalgia are extremely sensitive to barometric pressure. We have dropped about 40 degrees here since late last week. I’m very stiff and extremely achy. Self care includes my heating pad, muscle rubs, hot shower and rest. I hope that you get some relief soon. Take care.

Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job. It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it. Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown. There was a full length mirror in the changing room. I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like. It was a reality check.
