I tried a diet plan that a doctor wrote and for me it worked. It had something to do with not eating anything from the night shade families such as anything with tomatoes, potatoes, etc. You do have to follow it exactly but it is worth it plus you can lose some unwanted inches as well.

I don't get too many Msgs forwarded from here but you folks are the most understanding and sharpest of any of the blogs I inhabit. (FM 30 years, last 5 hell).

Have you noticed that there are many more people expressing pain, especially lately?
I am thinking that the charged and fractious Political environment makes us more tense; consequently, more in pain. A chiro friend of mine told me that whenever there was a lot of bad news his Fibro patient started getting worse. I really took it to heart and try to step back from those events to which I cannot effect any change. That doesn't mean I don't want to be active and contribute, but I have to make myself step back from the noise, haste, and just hateful stuff that gets spewed out these days. I'm sure it was always this way, but now it is instantaneous and relentless. This blog is the only one I've ever been on, and while it breaks my heart to hear how many people suffer, I feel less alone. R

Hi R, I just joined this site today. I was on a few on Facebook, but there is non stop negativity on those sites and I needed a break. Mayo Clinic popped up on my email so I signed up. You are 100% right with the political climate - effects me a lot. Due to the chronic pain I can't work - I sell things on ebay, but can't hold down a job. I have to limit the TV coverage. Ever since last Nov. I have declined ..... Can't wait for the mid term and hope to see some new female faces .... I wish I could march for women but I can't make it out of my bed. But the hateful bs is bad for most people , especially pain patients.

I have a very technical job and I have been in High Tech for 20+ years, but I HATE Facebook. Cannot understand it - get mad when I go there. But some of my most articulate friends write some amazing stuff on FB occasionally and when I get a funny something it makes my day! I look about once a month though. My Mother, God bless her, has started posting God stuff - and I have Nothing against God, but when did she get religion again? I think that we should share some funny things as well as commiserate about our pain. Do you know how to catch a unique rabbit? You 'neak up on it! Ha. RR

He'll caprfibro I also have had fibro 30 yrs .Just the last year I discovered Fibro Malic ,research said we need more Magnesium.This product has helped me alot.
Stay strong

The reason why I do not turn on the morning news.

Know how to catch a tame rabbit?
Good day to all out there in fibro land. There are times I don't feel like moving, but have found that if I do I feel better about myself. I have much to be thankful for and focusing on the positive does not cause the pain to worsen.
I would not like to see a positive site turn into another fb world. My compliments to the administration and volunteers.
