- How do you feel when you see your wedding photos?I used to feel only positive emotions (love,fond memories of the wedding day, grateful to have such an awesome husband,etc)Now, I still feel that, but I also feel sadness. We were only 20 when we got...
- My husband has a cold right now. That used to mean he would spend half a day in bed and then he'd be fine. Now with fibro, it's like the cold causes a really bad flare up...the light in his eyes is gone again, he's super irritable toward me and my...
- Hey I just wanted to tell you about my 3 part blog post out our family's experience with fibromyalgia. Part 2 is mostly about my experience as his support person. Just thought I'd let you know in case anyone would like to read it
- I'm not sure if this is allowed, but I wrote a three part blog entry about my family's experience with Fibromyalgia and wanted to share it with you. http://ashleyjanette.wordpress.com/2014/06/05/living-with-fibromyalgia-part-one/
- My husband has stopped going to church because every Sunday morning he wakes up intending to go, and the thought of having to deal with all the "helpful" people (asking how he's doing and offering silly suggestions and saying they understand)...
- I read a thread about a sexual side effect of cymbalta (inability of orgasm),so I know it's a common problem. My question is this : does this side effect go away as your body gets used to the dosage you are on? Or does it stay as long as you...
- I know i can't allow myself to think that way because its not helpful but sometimes the thought "I can't do this" creeps in and sometimes its hard for me to push it out and stay positive. Right now the two hardest things for me are:1. dealing with...
- My husband had a really bad night last night and couldn't sleep at all because of pain, even though he took melatonin and a aleeping pill. I'm not aure when he finally went to sleep but I know he was still awake at 6:30 and he was asleep the next...
- My husband was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I've taken care of him through health crisis situations before (2 emergency surgeries) but my emotions this time are so different because this time it's a chronic illness with no cure, and it's...
- In case you haven't seen my other posts, my husband was recently diagnosed with fibro.some days I'm strong. I'm his support, I'm the one cheering him on, and im the one taking care of our family (him, the kids, myself, the dog). On my strong days,...
- My husband is in the process of applying for disability (it's insurance through his work that will pay for his income for a while when he's unable to work). He just got a letter from them saying he needs to either send them a complete medical...
- I read online that there is a 75 percent divorce ratr for marriages where one spouse has a chronic illness. Whoa!! That freaked me out! I want so bad to be in that 25 percent who makes it. I love my husband. I want to be the kind of person who...
- My husband (who was recently diagnosed with fibro) is starting to get better enough that he's wanting to do things again, which is awesome. But now we have a new problem... he doesn't seem to think anymore about how his actions might affect me. Some...
- This has probably been discussed a million times here, but I'm just wondering how many people have tried the anti-candida diet, and whether it helped them. I wish I could just make a poll to simplify it but I dont think there's a way on this forum....
- Since my husbands diagnosis, we have had two family friends approach us regarding products that they believe will help him. I honestly believe they're trying to help, and not just sell something. They were very sincere, and one of them said she has...
