    Weekend Sleep

    I've heard of Fit Bit but I have no idea what it does! I've tried everything to help get a decent night's sleep. One thing that HAS helped me is making sure there are not any lights on. I swear, all the electronics in this world just set the world ablaze with light and it really does mess with...

    Juice diets - has anyone tried?

    I'm the same way. I was just telling my husband the other day that I have never really thought that those smoothie bars sell a very good "healthy" product because they are so high in sugar from all the fruit. My younger sister constantly tries to do a juicing thing and she never makes it and she...

    When Do You Put Your Foot Down?

    I always feel like I have to do things for people. I don't know how to say "no." So, I end up stuck in this cycle where I'm constantly doing things for others and then I'm so tired, I'm too tired to even take a shower. I used to be pretty good at saying "no" when I couldn't do something but...

    Does it ever get better?

    Hi! Welcome to the board. My take on it is like fibromite2 said. There are good days and bad days. It's just like being diabetic. I have great days where I feel pretty good and then two days where I feel like nothing I do can keep my blood sugar in check. Same with CFS, I feel like there are...

    Tea and blood sugar

    Strangely enough, I cannot drink green tea or earl grey tea. I don't know what is in those two teas but they've always made my stomach hurt really bad! One of my favorite teas is "Cinnamon Sunset" by Harney and Sons. It just tastes wonderful and you don't really need to put any sugar or anything...

    Headaches and Storms

    Ugh, no kidding! I have been getting headaches around the evening for the past week or so. I'm really starting to think it's all allergy related so I may try taking an allergy pill in the morning to see if that helps prevent them. I love my cool compress! I put it over my eyes and it's almost...

    Headaches and Storms

    We are having tornado weather again here. I've tried to limit my caffeine intake today and I've slept through a lot of today. Not consuming as much caffeine actually seems to have helped a bit. I didn't take any headache medicine and I should have because I am starting to get that little...

    Does medical marijuana help?

    I'm a huge advocate of medical marijuana. Unfortunately, I don't live in a state where it's legal. I wish I did because I know it would help me with CFS and diabetes. How crazy is that? It makes me so mad that there's this remedy out there that I know will help me and I can't even use it. I wish...

    Headaches and Storms

    Wow, that detox bath sounds wonderful! I already follow a pretty strict diet (diabetic, here) but I have been thinking that maybe gluten free is the way to go. I'm starting to think that gluten is just as poisonous as sugar. I've heard that gluten is pretty bad on the body and that the body...

    Can Men Get Fibromyalgia?

    I wonder if women are just more vocal about it? I've often wondered if my brother has fibro. He has similar aches and pains to me (I'm female) and he's always tired. He's pretty young, too. He's only 20 but he says there are days he wakes up and just feels bad.
