    Why Fibromyalgia Pain Feels Different

    For Amy Mullholand, simple chores like washing the dishes or making breakfast can be incredibly challenging. “On a good day, I can get through the cups and the silverware, then I must sit for at least 15 to 20 minutes. Then I tackle the bowls. Then I sit and rest,” said Mullholand. “On a bad...

    Nightmare

    Been having extreme pain in feet, I had a nightmare that someone was carving chunks of flesh out of my foot! The pain was so real, and I woke husband up with a shearing scream. Now, tell me.......is that my imagination? Obviously fibro is effecting me, and yoga is not going to fix it.

    Gabapentin and weight issues

    I've been on gabapentin since June, currently taking 600mg/day. It's (mostly) managing my pain (on good days I have virtually no pain), which makes me happy. But right after I started taking it, I gained almost 10 pounds, and I can't seem to break through the plateau I'm at right now to go back...

    Hello

    Hi all. I'm going to be honest from the get-go: I generally don't like this kind of thing. I'm not ashamed and I'm not a super private person (well to some extent, mostly because I find explaining fibro only illicits pity). But I'm at a loss and I want to get this off of my chest. I'm 32, male...

    I just wanted to make people aware who don't want drugs/don't get relief from drugs that there are current clinical trials for other therapies: yoga, mediation, devices, etc. If you go to the NIH clinical trials database and type in the search bar fibromyalgia and your state, you can see what's...

    Meditation for Pain?

    Someone suggested I try meditation for relief of my chronic pain symptoms. They offer one-hour meditation classes at the yoga studio downtown, so I could attend yoga and meditation and only park once. It would help if there were more meditation classes scheduled around town, so I could attend...

    Yoga Classes for Fibromyalgia

    What kind of yoga classes should I take for my FM? I just read a research article recommending 75-minute classes, but most only go for 60 minutes, including a 15-minute nap at the end. My friends say that it should be easy enough to do a beginner Hatha yoga class, to just go slow and breathe...
