    Fireworks

    Does anyone else have sensitivity to the loud noise and bright lights from fireworks? My daughter was performing yesterday at a fairly big festival with the band she’s in at school and we were all given the opportunity to stay on for the fireworks display after. I was really reluctant because...

    Has anyone tried CBD oil yet? I started it on Friday as I’ve heard so many successful stories from others I wanted to try it for myself. I’ll let you know how I get on. I’m feeling very positive about starting it :-D

    Fibro - life sentence

    Okay so today is not a good day as the title suggests :sad: I’m feeling really down & a bit defeated.

    Turmeric/Curcumin

    Sorry I haven’t posted for a while, life has been so hectic as usual! My sister mentioned some online research she had seen about the use of Turmeric or Curcumin for relief of fibro symptoms.

    Sleep study for sleep apnoea

I did the sleep study last night at home and if this comes back positive I'll be referred for a sleep study as an inpatient in hospital. I'll be really surprised if it comes back negative but still have that wee glimmer...

    Sciatica type pain

    Does anyone else experience sciatic type pain? I had a really bad episode months ago because my knees were so bad I couldn't bend or lift properly and my back suffered as a result. It got so bad I couldn't weight bear at all and was frozen to the spot for well over an hour. I've seen a...

    Red palms

    I wonder if anyone else has experienced this, I'm not sure if it's fibro related & I'm not due to see my rheumatologist until early next year. Every so often my palms feel really hot and they go bright red & shiny in appearance. I had bloods done for lupus a couple of weeks ago so I assume these...

    Physio & yet another diagnosis

    Omg where does this horrible nightmare end! I'm seeing so many different healthcare professionals and every one of them has diagnosed me with something else. I had a physio appointment on Wednesday after my rheumatologist referred me and was told that I had osteoarthritis in my knees which is...
