Hello everyone ,
I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia for 5 months now. Over the last few weeks I have felt as if I have completly lost my ability to exercise. A few months ago I was able to do 40 kg on a leg press at the gym but today i could only handle 10kg. I am also noticing getting fatigued even when Im only stretching. Last week i tried to stretch at the end of the day and got a burning feeling in my legs and knees after 5 minutes. This happened again at physio , after doing a stretch for 30 seconds.
Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else? Has anyone else found they have suddenly become weaker ? Has anyone else found that stretching causes flare ups ? Wondering what I can do to maintain some form of activity !
