He was talking...

    Does Exercise Ease Your Pain?

    Do you exercise regularly for pain management? I was in a bad state and very sick from getting less and less sleep. So I decided to something about it. My pain is worst in my shoulders and hips so I started walking for a half hour every day. I also estimated my healthy weight range and realized...

    Riverwalking for exercise?

    Hi all, I have had FM since 1998 but am new to this forum. There are so many useful posts that I am excited to try such as changing my diet. You guys rock! My doctor is begging me to get out and exercise. As many of you know, it comes with a price. I went to Water World with my family and...

    Apathy and Anger Phase?

    Treatments other than medications?

    I am fairly new to fibro - was diagnosed right at a year ago. I just found you guys yesterday (yay!). I have struggled tremendously with medications - the side effects on some are horrible, others do nothing for me. I think I have come to the conclusion that I need to stop expecting a miracle...

    rapid weight gain

    I do not get very depressed until recently and I need urgent advice. Was a size 12 in 2011 and now I am a size 16 and not losing weight no matter what. I am very weight concious, a diet and exercise freak for almost all my life. Doctors and nutrientians confirm that I am doing all the right...
