Just needing to gripe a little.
Having a major fibro-flare. It's been going on for about 3 months now. Not taking anything but Tylenol for pain, which is migrating all over the place.
Wish I had a big bag of weed!!!! Seems to be the only thing that's ever really worked, without all the bullshit side-effects, or addiction possibilities.

Hi! One thing has worked with me, my son and my mother is pool therapy. The water is warm, it doesn't hurt on your joint and by the 3 theraphy the pain is gone until next flare. In our case a few months.

I'm waiting for the water temp to get over 80 degrees. It's still too cold to swim.
At least for me, anyway.
@KKGator I go to aquatic therapy whitch is in a indoor pool with pretty hot water.
I wish you luck and weed!

Thanks. You, too.
I don't think weed would be good for me. My body is weird, I get hyperactive and loose sleep with sedatives. I also get a very allergic reaction with things derrive from plants. But, thank you for the sudgestion. I know it was well intended.
How about CBD oil? I hear it's supposed to help with fibro. I have some on order. Can't wait to try it.

I've been using it for over a year for the EDS and Lupus. It seems to help reduce joint pain a bit.
It's not legal for me to use in Georgia. I can't get approved.
I really want to move back to Florida.

Posted by PiperMckennaI'm quite prone to bruising because of EDS....any tips on how to reduce the look of bruises? Ideally I'd like to prevent them. But it's too late for that today. haha
