    exercise with fibromyalgia

    I can relate all too well, I was easily 80 lbs overweight weight and in an ongoing cycle! I’m overweight so I hurt, then go to the gym to try to exercise but I’m overweight so it was counterproductive and then I’d hurt from the gym and start all over again. Luckily, I found a doctor that said I...

    Hoping to Volunteer

    I truly appreciate everyone’s feedback, it has been extremely helpful reading about other opportunities and hearing that other people are struggling with the same thing!

    Any natural remedies for dry eyes?

    I’m not sure about all natural, but I use Systane and gel drops as well. These two have worked wonders for my eyes when they are really bad. If I could just remember to do it everyday, my eyes wouldn’t be as bad, but remembering to do something is just too much for me.. hahah. I am going to try...

    Hoping to Volunteer

    Yesterday I went to a volunteer orientation and as we were finishing up, I asked if the hours were set in stone or I could do less hours in the shift, they said no. I was so frustrated, this is the second place I’ve gone with the intention to volunteer but they sort of have set hours they want...
