    Any medical students/professionals here?

    I agree.... you should not give up. It took me a long time to complete my degree while working in a physically demanding job with children and seniors, while raising my family etc. I thought I was superwoman and it caught up with me. I refused to give in and I'm so glad I finished. I...

    Shortness of breath - CBD

    I am so thankful for CBD oil. I have been using it by prescription from my Dr. for 2 years. I would be on nasty pain pills without it. My stomach couldn't take it any more. I am almost as good as new but I have to pace myself or I pay later when I work too hard in the garden etc. I believe...

    Taking my jeans off!

    If you can get your pain under control it will probably get easier or you can try the stretch jeans with spandex...it's a lot easier. Many people only wear yoga pants but their not my thing. I know if I have a bad day I have to wear loose fitting pants or joggers. At least they are in style!

    So thankful to finally know the chronic pain due to fibromyalgia

    Best wishes to you on your journey with fibro. The problem is that people don't understand it and many who have fibro look just fine....you would never know they are in pain. I don't bother to tell anyone about my fibro....they forget quickly and it's only a problem for me.

    no aches or pain for past six weeks

    Thank you for this information. I sometimes get frustrated and discouraged with the fibro and wish there was more research being done. If you find any good peer reviewed research please post on this site. Have a nice day!
