I am one of those people whose fibromyalgia comes in spurts…some days horrible and others just an annoyance.
I take Ibuprofen and acetaminophen to help manage the pain, but more and more here lately, these pills do not offer any relief. That’s when I pull out my trusty bottle of caffeine pills…often (but not always) the caffeine breaks off the pain at the root.
If you’re like me, a certain level of functionality is needed by my family to help meet the normal tasks like washing dishes, laundry, vacuuming and grocery shopping.
My family IS very understanding when I just can’t deal with the pain on any level, but sometimes I really try to live a normal life and do my part to keep our household running smoothly.
Does anyone else out there find caffeine helpful when you a really bad flare? Just wondering.
