Fibro-What?

Fibromyalgia is a syndrome that causes widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory, cognitive and mood issues. Some symptoms of fibromyalgia are irritable bowel syndrome, pain and stiffness, depression, dizziness, anxiety, memory lapses, fatigue etc. Although debilitating, fibromyalgia is not life threatening or degenerative and can be managed with medication and self care. Drug therapies, nutritional supplements, homeopathy, exercise, chiropractic treatment, massage, acupuncture, aquatic therapy: including floating or mind-body therapies are some ways to manage fibromyalgia.

Fibro & Me

I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 2006/2007. It took me almost 7 years, two surgeries and a whole lot of doctor visits to figure out how to live again with Fibromyalgia.  My biggest enemies have been Chronic Fatigue and the very EVIL Fibro Fog.
