- So the past few weeks have been incredibly depressing and discouraging. Even with fibro, I'm a die-hard runner (I just have to be careful to stay consistent and make sure I rest) and I had signed up for a half marathon in May, which I was starting...
- So this is a bit off topic but if anyone could send good thoughts my dog's way today, that would be great (he's technically my parents' dog, but he was always "my" dog even after I moved out). Last night my parents called me and I almost ignored it...
- I'm sure some people have heard of maca...it's a root vegetable from the Andes that supposedly helps with things like muscle pain, fatigue, stamina and a host of other ailments. My question is, has anyone tried it, and what were the effects you...
- Does anyone else feel like fibromyalgia is screwing up a relationship with a significant other? Or at least contributing to screwing it up? Right now it's definitely affecting mine. Earlier today I had a breakdown, mostly because of work stuff,...
- So this is the conversation I'm about to have with my boyfriend before I leave for work:"Happy birthday! I love you. Btw there's a paring knife...somewhere. It's probably still in the apartment. I thought I left it on the counter but now I can't...
- So I started a new job this week, and I was excited about it because it is full time and not run by a vapid narcissist, and only a little nervous about how fibro would affect things (I work with animals so that can be physically demanding). When I...
- Why does it seem like everything happens at once? The past week has been hell. I had a crazy day at work where we all had to work through break because my boss has no concept of time when she schedules surgeries, then I had a panic attack over the...
- Still kind of a work in progress, but I did get the blog up and running. For those who didn't see the post from like a week ago, I decided to start a blog about exercising with Fibromyalgia. It's nothing fancy but for now it'll do because I have a...
- I've been toying around with the idea of starting a blog about living with fibro, centering around exercise and staying active (I'll also probably include other things too but that would be the main focus). The idea is to be motivational, especially...
- So I know everyone is different and what works really well for someone will not work at all for others. Right now I'm only on Amitriptyline for my fibromyalgia (50mg daily at night), but this has been a rough week because someone at work is on...
- I was wondering if anyone else has experienced something...last night I woke up about 10:30 with a really sore throat, except it wasn't just my throat, my whole esophagus/windpipe were also burning. It was like strep throat that extended all the way...
- Long story short, my anxiety over sex is slowly killing my relationship. I've been dating the best guy ever (literally, I've put him through so much with various health issues and anxiety and he's still here) for a year and a half, we live together,...
- So after an awkward 22 minute "phone interview" with a practice owner (they usually don't do their own interviews) that I was completely unprepared for and during which I had to yell at my kitten for trying to eat my lunch that I was packing, I have...
- These past couple months have just been kicking my ass. I have some random target on my back at work that resulted in my hours being cut without warning (which is putting me in a bad financial situation), and now certain people are literally...
- So today was the work day from HELL. And I didn't even almost pass out, and it wasn't my 11 hour day (that's tomorrow...can't freaking wait). My manager gave me a written warning for a number of things: cell phone use (which was fair, I have been...
