    It switched off for 5 minutes.

    Oh I ought to add that I'd also seriously overdone it the day before. My Internet fault arising when it rains or its windy have got the team coming out in a few days, I decided to cut away all the branches on my property that could be a problem, as well as those leading to my house. So putting...

    It switched off for 5 minutes.

    Thank you for that, I'd tried acupuncture but did nothing for me, never tried cryotherapy.... I actually prefer heat, especially in the shower where when washed I reduce the flow and increase the heat and have a gentle flow on my lower back and neck, both places where I have arthritis. When I...

    It switched off for 5 minutes.

    Yes it's a mystery, as it wasn't just like on a good day when you don't hurt too much. It was really different, I felt so amazingly energised like I could have run up the side of a house, no pain but not nummed either. Every bit of my body felt fantastic. Perhaps the pain managemt part of my...

    Lyme disease

    My worst intermittent problem was waking up with paralyzed hands that took 10 minutes to get moving again. These attacks would flare up over nite and last months, slowly getting milder, then WHAM it would come back again, but each time it kicked off again it was slightly less severe , but would...

    Lyme disease

    For those that suffer from Fibromalgia, it can mask the Lyme symptoms, so unless you have some form of red patches then I would doubt you do actually have Lyme disease. This is why your doctor is skeptical. and all the doctors will suggest you results were falsely suggesting that you might...

    Sleep and zolpidem

    One very natural method is to have climaxed either on you own or by a partner. The body will be relaxed, and it's easy to fall asleep without any medication. I've stopped taking pain killers as they were reducing my libido, which among other side effects was causing phimosis, tightening of the...

    Severe finger pain - any tips? (Pun intended)

    Hi, it doesnt sound like the typical fibro hand pain, fingers locking up, half the hand goin numb, but more like arthritis but your rhumatologue says its not! Im surprised they didn't propose cortizone injections. I had many for my fibro, and a knee problem. The knee injection didn't hurt but...

    Chemical imbalance in brain is cause of Fibro?

    Sadly Tramadol LP, has too many side effects. I had been using it for years, until a discussion at my aqua therapy session, raised the addiction effect. Im very strong willed, so i stopped taking tramadol except for my ixprim, combination of paracetamol and tramadol for fast relief if i get too...

    Fire and Ice nightmare

    Sorry to hear about your condition. One thing i have learnt about fibro is its ability to exaggerate levels of pain. I don't mean you are exaggerating the pain you feel, no its fibro exaggerating what should be slight pain or even just feeling hot or cold. Eg my fibro would make a small rsi...
