    Does anybody crave ice cream?

    Hi, Just wondering if anybody else craves ice cream during a "flare-up? When I'm hurting, I'm not satisfied until I get a bowl of ice cream! I am learning about Serotonin and Dopimine,and how our levels are too low. I figure that is when I want chocolate, to build the "feel good" chemicals back...

    migraines with fibro?

    Does anyone get migraines with their fibro flare ups? My fibro is flaring up today, and my head is also killing me! I am sensitive to migraines, and stress often triggers them. But I guess stress also triggers my fibro to some extent.

    Postnatal fibro

    I had severe body pain after delivering my baby. Thought it was a fibro flare up. Turned out some of the pain was from a progesterone birth control pill they had just put me on. Anyone having pain that might be somewhat attributed to hormone pill side effects? Stopping the pill resolved that...

    Debbie Downer & Heidi Hypochondriac?

    Does anyone else feel like Debbie Downer when they talk about their symptoms to people who aren't affected by fibro/other chronic illnesses?
