Just want to clarify, I incorrectly said I was on painkillers, but what I meant was my fibromyalgia med that killed the pain: Lyrica. I was on Lyrica at the time I filmed this video, and eventually stopped because of side effects such as weight gain. I am now taking Nortryptaline and my fibro is under control. I am aware that painkillers don’t do much for fibromyalgia and I’m sorry I didn’t catch that mistake in editing. ❤
One thing healthy individuals will never understand about a chronic condition is that just because someone has “two working arms and two working legs” doesn’t mean their brain can efficiently use them. I have fibromyalgia and I’m surrounded by people who think I’m being dramatic, and who labeled me lazy ages ago. When really, I’m a whole lot stronger than them because I push myself despite pain they never faced. The brain fog is also very real, it’s not just a little tiredness. The brain is actively trying to work despite pain signals being triggered, so it‘s constantly trying to create pathways around the pain in order to function. Basically it’s doing more stuff in the background than anyone can imagine. So our thought processes take longer or simply don’t work correctly at all. KUDOS TO ANYONE WITH THIS HORRIBLE CONDITION. Oh, and I’m really sick of hearing “but you look fine.” It’s so insulting that people can possibly think that looks are directly related to how someone’s body is (& isn’t) working. Ok, I’m stepping off my soapbox now.
To me, that’s one of the worst things about fibromyalgia. I already feel like I’m just being lazy or manipulative for having such low energy. I don’t need to hear naysayers. I’m sending love and light to everyone with this syndrome 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
You described me and my situation perfectly right down to my belief that my brain is working hard overcompensating. My brain fog is worse the first half of the day or if I'm feeling overwhelmed which is often. The body pain is very bad but even worse if I get less than 7 hours sleep. I feel like if I could get 14 hours a night for a few nights, i would feel a bit better. The fatigue is all the time. Feels like I'm coming down with the flu all the time... When it comes to house cleaning, what used to take 2 hours now takes 8 hours.
Just happened to stumble upon your channel and I'm so glad I did . I feel your pain . I too have fibromyalgia . I'm 66 and have had it since my early forties . The chronic fatigue is just as bad a dealing with the chronic pain . Some people just don't understand how hard it is for us in our daily lives .
I'm 58 and had it since I was 38. I found it got even worse with menopause. It's quite bad now and I'm scared of how I'll be at 80... I used to go to the gym, walked for cardio, mowed the lawn every week in summer, put in a vegetable garden, kept a clean home, enjoyed being very active... THEN I got sick with this wackadoodle, disastrous illness. It stole my life and I've been existing while extended family berate me for turning into an overweight loser. My sister said "but, but, but... YOU USED TO WORKOUT!"... I'm so sad. I'd be happy if I could walk distances and garden. If I could just have a really clean home... I have places in my house where I hide junk and dirt and I'm SO ASHAMED. I'm really just so tired.
I take 10 mg of Amitriptyline at night and my pain is totally gone! I almost had to quit work because of no sleep and so much pain. I thank God for answering my prayer and I'm so grateful. I hope this helps someone. Keep the faith and never give up.
You are my new best friend! I have fibromyalgia arthritis and migraines and just this one video helped me! I will be checking out others for sure! Thank you! 💜💜💜
I just came across your page today. Thank you for sharing your journey. I was just recently diagnosed and have been dealing with this since catching COVID in January of 2022. I finally found a daily medicine that helps me some. The fatigue is another thing and I suffer from the dark circles under my eyes. You showed putting eye mask on, can you share what brand?
Love this! Thanks for sharing your day in the life. I have started my channel inspired by my fibromyalgia as well, but it's interesting to see someone with the same illness with completely different symptoms. very informative xx much love from the UK
You made me feel better because I struggle to do small things and before I got chronic back pain I was on the go all the time. Now if I get up and take my medication and wash that is a triumph. It is hard to explain to others who are not in chronic pain. I mean where do you start. I feel like an apology before most people coz I can't do the things they do and I did and amongst all that I have to try to find my own way. Got seriously depressed last year after having to put my cat down from cancer aged 14 years and then in 2022 being hospitalised because of a pulmonary embolism and I was in end stage heart failure at the time. Such an almighty shock. My heart failure is much better with medication and under cardiologist care. I am so grateful for that and I am just getting out of the cycle of severe depression which was rooted in all the things I can't do and the financial stress of being chronically ill. I am just coming out of that now and I have to learn my life is completely different now and learn to adapt. Thank you. I am glad I found your channel . Keep going ❤️
I am sorry you deal with this not so invisible ailment. I have heard some people saying that it is an invisible disease. I can see the pain in your face and in the way you move with such difficulty. Fybro is not invisible at all. It is obvious. Sending you good vibes.
I’m so blessed to have a husband that helps me. I’m bedridden right now because my lower back spasmed and I fell on my knees and screamed. My back hurts more the more I walk. I’m trying new meds so we’ll see. I am pretty scared. I had to cancel a dental appointment this week. My new PCP is trying to help me but I’m basically coaching her from all my research. I really need an online support group. My husband and I are pretty depressed. I used to be pretty athletic but exercise causes too much pain. No Chanukah or Christmas this year. We need help. 😢
People do not understand HOW exhausting and painful it is to "do" the holidays. I prefer to just be alone and not participate. I can't cook Thanksgiving dinner or wrap presents anymore, none of it. And that is OKAY! It HAS to be okay. People need to pull their heads out of their azzes and not expect a person with this condition, to provide them with the perfect holiday season with memories for them so they can be in the "spirit". I am a Christian. Jesus is not a baby. He died on the Cross and is now alive again sitting at the right hand of the Father. That's all I need to understand. I don't follow the traditions of man. Jesus is my life, every day of my life. All of the traditions are pagan in origin anyway. Since I know this, I will be held accountable. I would rather please God than to please man. Don't feel pressured. Set up some healthy boundaries for yourself. Its okay to do that.
I use eye cool gel masks for my burning feet and palms, just freeze it and roll it gently please. I burst in tears seeing somebody understands this specific fibromyalgia pain
I am so so sorry. I have it too, but my medications work fairly well. Coffee does make everything better for sure. Don’t worry about your messy kitchen. It’s not really that bad.
I get pain all around my head. Not a headache although I get a lot of headaches and migraines, but the head itself. Painful and sensitive when touching, or even when the head is down on the pillow.
Thank you for your video. I do have chronic pain. I have severe scoliosis and I’m a retired nurse. I love your cat. My cat paws at me like that all the time too.❤
Ohh Angee, thank you dearly for your honesty. This video is really helpful. Last Thursday I felt awful, like I had the flu and a hangover and no cause for either. The medication gave me a migraine on top of it. The self care helps. Epsom salt bath and comfortable temped shower. Cool shower water is actually is better after the warm bath. I had no idea what body aches can be capable of ugh. I hope I can get to the point that I don't need sugar or comfort foods often soon. Your cat is super cute!! Just chillin on the couch. Please do your research on the oils on the food commonly found in the foods for the air fryer. The oil is so important to our bodies and often they're harmful. Had to say hi and be supportive 😃🎉 It's really good knowing I'm not alone 😅💜 💚
I have endometriosis as well which might be why but do you find that your fibromyalgia flares up 10x worse around your menstrual cycle and/or ovulation?
I have Fibromyalgia and Sjogrens Syndrome, so they have me on duloxitene, sulfasalazine, celebrex, prednisone (as needed), twice a day, I was on plaquinil, but it wasn't doing much. I still have pain, but it's not as intense. And no you can't do those things all the time. I have more down days and patchy skin days than non bad days
I am lying in bed right now. I am having the worst week, thus far, of my life, living with Fibro. I am now 60 yrs.old. The onset and diagnosis of it was when i was 27 yrs.old. I am so phucking tired of this sh!t! I feel so bad that i can not understand how having this extreme amount of pain and suffering hasn't caused my body to just give up. My skin is so sensitive to heat and cold, fabrics, and touch. I feel like i have a fever. All of my joints and muscles hurt. I have so many places on my body that are so TENDER. My neck and upper back are on fire. Last week i went to the chiropractor to get an adjustment. Bad decision!! It hurt me so much. I had made an appt.with a massage therapist. I had to cancel it. It would have been excruciating for anyone to touch my muscles. My shoulders, my back, my hips, my outer knees and my feet. I like to be in the dark when i don't feel well. I have had to disappoint my family so much because of this damn condition. When i am having " CRAZY " pain, all i can do it try to make myself as comfortable as possible and try to sleep and rest til i can have the strength to do the basics. The pain can make me feel nauseous. I could power - through in my 30s because i had 3 daughters to raise. I used to enjoy working in the yard. Now i will have to have bed rest for a week following any normal activity that people do. My husband passed away three yrs ago. Now i am a widow who lives alone. I have no help. I will continue taking care of myself like i have always done, until i give out. I also have stage 4 kidney disease. I am a Christian. I just call out to the Lord, just to please help me. If i couldn't be able to do that, i would have no hope. Having a flare up is like putting your life on hold until it subsides. They ( the medical doctors )for the majority, have no clue about what can really help. I have done it ALL! THEY say its not progressive as you age. I disagree 100 percent. I would not ever wish this condition on my very worst enemy, if i had one. I think that mental trauma has a direct effect on the body. Its like trauma is stored up in my body. I see a great therapist so she helps with those things but i think that ptsd is brutal to the body and has some long lasting effects. I have had some trauma that i just tried to move on from. Out of sight, out of mind... Whatever it may be. That never works, unfortunately. All i can say is just do the best you can. If others don't like it or think its not enough, let it be. If they had to spend one hour in your shoes they would be begging you to give them their shoes back, guaranteed. Nobody knows what it is like to have Fibro, if they have never had it. That also includes medical doctors.
Great video on Fibromyalgia.I have battle it for many years.I take cybalta for fibro it helps so much.I will start following you as I just came apon your channel today.Ty for sharing 😊
Might i ask what meds you take? Had fibro for nearly 20 years and nothing ever worked. I'd be so happy if I could go walking again but the fibro revenge is just way too severe.
Who else gained weight and lost their hair with fibromialgia?.. weight gain even makes the pain in my shoulders and legs worse and my depression worse .. the depression makes the brain fog and lack of concentration worse but despite all of these symptoms The FATIGUE is the worst..oh if only i had energy.
I had severe fatigue I couldn't function well and do daily activities without dreading every step. I'm now on lyrica and I have energy and helps pain. I gained weight but lost it doing a low calorie diet lots of veg and fruits and no junk food fried food just clean foods. I started noticing more hair fall then usual I'm hoping it don't get bad.

Hi Angeegabs, I am sorry you are having a hard time. I also have Fibromyalgia pain. I also have Fibro since 1992. Do you have a Doctor? Where do you live? I will let you go for now but I will be back. Take care.
I take Lyrica or Pregabalin. Only thing that kills the pain. I don't know why you are taking pain-killers because FMS is not affected by opioids/traditional pain killers. They don't work, but Lyrica does, and not the same side effects. If you have not tried it, it's worth it-just in case it works for you.
@@AshleySpeaks4U I accidentally said painkillers but what I meant was my med that kills the fibro pain - Lyrica. I was on it at the time the video was filmed and it did help somewhat, but I gained a ton of weight on it. I’m now on Nortryptaline and it’s working great! I’m glad you found something that works for you.
Hi Roxy, so sorry to hear you also suffer from fibromyalgia. I do find heat to be helpful, and adding epsom salts to the bath too. I have a gel called "Epsom Gel" that has epsom salts and arnica for if I can't have a bath and I rub it on my hands and feet, which usually hurt the most. I find a heated blanket helpful for when I can't have a bath. My mom got me two heated blankets and I love them!
Niacin flush is worth the researching. It doesn’t resolve all my fibroid symptoms but it sure helped out a lot. To do this correctly I match same amount of niacin to glycine so 300 mg of each taken at the same time 3 times per day with fatty food. However I take the last dose before 7pm so that it doesn’t interfere with my bedtime routine.
When I have leg pain where I cant sleep it helps to sleep in the floor.The medicine Mirapex helps with restless leg and pain.Also tramadol and advile helps.What pain medicine do you take?
What pain med are you on? My dr has tried a lot and nothing helps. He said that there is nothing more he can do. I am currently bed bound from a flare and really want to find some things to help
Check if you have ADHD ime 43 CFS 26 years fybromyalgia 6 same condition different symptoms now awaiting sleep apnea test all comorbid check out Dr lenz are you hypermobile to?

I was on it at the time the video was filmed and it did help somewhat, but I gained a ton of weight on it. I’m now on Nortryptaline and it’s working great! I’m glad you found something that works for you.
Lyrica doesn’t work for me. Im stopping it
Hello

Many thanks

Does a hot bath help you? I have fibro too I’m a lot older then you, but like to see how others cope, I take hot baths with Epson salt.
Hi Roxy, so sorry to hear you also suffer from fibromyalgia. I do find heat to be helpful, and adding epsom salts to the bath too. I have a gel called "Epsom Gel" that has epsom salts and arnica for if I can't have a bath and I rub it on my hands and feet, which usually hurt the most. I find a heated blanket helpful for when I can't have a bath. My mom got me two heated blankets and I love them!
I smoke pot for my fibromyalgia but makes my back hurt extra. Helps everywhere else, hurts my back.
Niacin flush is worth the researching. It doesn’t resolve all my fibroid symptoms but it sure helped out a lot. To do this correctly I match same amount of niacin to glycine so 300 mg of each taken at the same time 3 times per day with fatty food. However I take the last dose before 7pm so that it doesn’t interfere with my bedtime routine.
I have fibromyalgia!💜Do you mind sharing what medication you use? I have gabapentin and hydroxychloroquine

When I have leg pain where I cant sleep it helps to sleep in the floor.The medicine Mirapex helps with restless leg and pain.Also tramadol and advile helps.What pain medicine do you take?
Tramadol helps me too
What pain med are you on? My dr has tried a lot and nothing helps. He said that there is nothing more he can do.
I am currently bed bound from a flare and really want to find some things to help
I know just Tramadol can help with pain and fatigue.
But if Doc not giving this med try to do poppy seeds tea . ( unwashed) .
Try vitamin B1 complex it helps with pain. Or it did with mine. Hot baths help to soak the muscles.

My doctor had me on Lyrica. It really helped but it came with the side effect of a ton of weight gain, so just that caution!
