What can you do to make yourself feel better when you have a Fibromyalgia flare? For me it's trying to stay stress free, sleeping for at least 8 or 9 hours a night, and getting some form of exercise everyday or close to that. Having a positive mindset is a plus and laughing when you can is...

I get very relaxed at the end of the day if I take my bubble bath and listen to my music. Both are very calming for me and if you're brain is stress-free, your body will follow suit. Anything that I can do that is soothing and calming is a great way for me to spend my time. Going to the beach...

For those of us who don't seem to have the emotional support system that we need, I was hoping that someone could suggest a group that could help some of us with our Fibromyalgia challenges. If anyone could list or recommend any places that might be helpful, that would be very appreciated by...

I have found that one of the most frustrating symptoms of Fibromyalgia is the muscle weakness that seems to go along with all of the other symptoms. I feel like I can't move at all when it is really bad, and it can take anywhere from a day to several weeks to go away completely. Does anyone...

What is the best over the counter pain medicine that you have used? I have always used Advil for my pains and aches, but recently a friend told me about Aleve which is a little bit stronger than Advil. One Advil has only 200 mg of Ibuprofen, while one Aleve has 220 mg. of it. I don't know if...

Does anyone ever have their hair hurt? I know it may sound a little strange, but sometimes I feel like I've been hit in the head really hard and my head and hair sting like a bee sting or something similar. I'm sure that it goes along with all of the other sensitivities of Fibromyalgia. If...
