    Forgetting things

    Hi, Eff2013! I agree that it is one of the most annoying symptoms! I experience this several times, especially when I m tired, nervous or during flare ups. Everything is on the tip of my tongue but when it comes to saying the proper word, the latter has disappeared and it can't be brought up...

    Diagnosed with FB-Hello, everyone! Thank you!

    Hi josephrob! I haven't tried cbd oil during the day since this dosage definitely makes me fall asleep so I can't risk taking it while driving or teaching children! But I would like to ask you how much do you take so that you can function without being sleepy? Should I try less drops? Because I...

    Help with Depression and Fibromyalgia

    P.S. At this moment, I try to fight fibro fog so writing my thoughts is quite challenging but, if I was "healthier", I would probably never try to answer you or anyone else, because suffering from FM made me wanna offer as much help as I can to everyone out there; FM made me more sympathetic and...

    Help with Depression and Fibromyalgia

    Even though it sounds weird, it's a first step to express all the things you just said, all your emotions, as you said. All the incidents that have happened to you, are - much or less - common characteristics of most who suffer from FM or a similar condition. I 'm so sorry that you had to be in...

    Trying to cope with fibromyalgia

    Hi, Moniks! I think is a combination of things which might be proved beneficial. The one that plays major role in my personal experience is accepting new circumstances,dealing with them and staying positive-most of the times. I tried everything separately but it didn't work efficiently. For...

    Newly diagnosed - will I be able to exercise again?

    Hi, Kait0220! The biggest challenge considering FM is to explain to others how this syndrome affects you and your daily routine. Since there's nothing obvious - that's why it's called an 'invisible' condition very often - it's hard to "prove" that something is really wrong. I had the same...

    Sensation loss one side of body

    Hi there! I was taken to the hospital exactly because my right side was numb and in pain-my gums were swollen like I 'd been stung by bees. Doctors run all tests and MRI as well as blood tests came out normal. They had told me that it was extreme stress and gave me cortizone. Almost one year...

    Diagnosed with FB-Hello, everyone! Thank you!

    Hello sjbrown! Thank you for the reply; I totally agree with you about the forum, the stories and the suggestions. Unfortunately, I have tried to stay medicine free, but it 's proved impossible, at least for now. Only with Lyrica I found some relief yet I try not to take pills every time I...

    Newly diagnosed- need motivation

    Hi, Susan! I can definitely sympathise with your symptoms. I find it extremely difficult to get up in the morning because any pain is worse and I usually start to function after 2 o' clock or even later. Every person who experiences fibro should find his/her own pace and motives which can...
