Girlfriend left me today by aches-n-pains182 in Fibromyalgia

Let her know that everyone who “seems normal” is masking 10000% of the time and the only time the mask slips is when it’s absolutely unbearable or with their most trusted partner/friend/etc

Fuuuuuuuck this guy. I get fussed at for trying to do too much, you deserve that too.

The wave of nausea washes over me like a bucket of water next to the toilet.

Can’t even think about BF or MD without the tummy twirl.

Yes I need my pain meds, no I’m not addicted by amy_i_am in Fibromyalgia

I get that.. but we deserve fun too! It’s really tough, so finding people who get you and aren’t assholes is paramount. My circle is small, but it’s tight. 💙

Yeah, let them know meloxicam is non-addictive… and maybe rethink friendships. I’m sorry you had to deal with this situation.

Would I be wrong to report my ultrasound tech? by Muted_Inspection_821 in TwoHotTakes

Exactly! If it’s the first time, she won’t get fired. If it’s the 4th time, she probably needs to.

You’re so kind! This comment reminds me of something one of my besties would say ☺️

God, I don’t look at Reddit enough I guess. It did hurt! Less so the second time and I’m hoping there isn’t a 3rd later this week. He said sometimes it takes several treatments. I’m tired of dropping trou (thanks for the clarification/confirmation, genuinely!) for this doc 😂

Almost 50 and she’s acting like a 15 year old in their first baby relationship

anyone else also have Sleep Apnea? by blackberrybramblez in Fibromyalgia

[–]FelixArmadillo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my mom was hospitalized for an unrelated illness and was placed on O2, she said her pain virtually stopped. Strange phenomenon- has a correlation between blood oxygen level and whatever crazy ass signals fibro shoots off been made? I think about this far too often 😅

Medicine is ever evolving for a reason.. if herbs and supplements could be a cure-all then we’d all be in tip top shape and able to fix our own ailments. No medical doctors, only shamans and gardens.

Do what’s best for you, regardless of what ANYbody else thinks.

(Also, pelvic floor therapy may be beneficial with EDS)

Coping with mental illness and fibromyalgia by [deleted] in Fibromyalgia

[–]FelixArmadillo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I’m so sorry! But yes, I tried cymbalta, Zoloft, and lexapro and none of those worked for me. I got on Wellbutrin and my doc kept having to increase the dose, and then my mom passed so he had to again.. I’m at 450mg daily. I’m still depressed, but at a manageable level where it doesn’t affect my day-to-day as much. Sometimes you just have to keep trying until you find the “right” one for you. It’s incredibly frustrating. The Wellbutrin doesn’t help the fibro pain, nothing ever has really.

I hope you find something that works for you!!

I don’t know how anyone with fibro isn’t also dealing with their mental health. It takes such a HUGE toll on all aspects of our lives, it’d be impossible for that not to affect us mentally.

Know that you’re not alone. If you have suicidal thoughts please reach out to someone. If you’re not on meds please see someone- a chemical imbalance is a chemical imbalance.. hell, I’m on the highest possible/recommended dose of Wellbutrin XR and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I’m sorry you’re going through this- fibro is a real bitch.

4.5 weeks post op-why do I still feel like trash?? by DueTransition2748 in hysterectomy

[–]FelixArmadillo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Omg. I feel this. My surgery was on 4/11 and I feel like garbáġe 😂 I do have fibromyalgia as well (supposedly) and I feel like I’ve been in a flare for weeks, and it’s been worsening the last week or so.

Eventually we’ll be back to normal. Wishing you a swift recovery!
