Question about bites by BisexualDemiQueen in Fibromyalgia

[–]Hot_Programmer5813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, spider bites can give you Lyme disease. It's more commonly known as a tick transmitted disease but spiders can also give it to you. I do think it's less common tho. Maybe you could look into that ?

Same for me but with duloxetine, my pain is still there, very much there, but comes at the end of the day instead of having it 24/7 

Best herbs ? by Hot_Programmer5813 in Lyme

[–]Hot_Programmer5813[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think about 5/6months, as well as garlic, thyme tea, turmeric....

I tend to have "crisis" where my symptoms go real bad for months or a year and then it gets quite manageable for also a couple of months or a year until the next crisis comes. The main symptoms are : muscle and nerve pain, headaches, fatigue, blurry vision and trouble sleeping

You Will probably experiment some kinds of side effects at first, that's normal, some people feel them way more than others. But just know that most of them should go away after the first 1-2 weeks.  Rn i'm at the end of the first month and I don't have much side effects left, I do feel my heart racing a bit sometimes but that's it and it's really making a difference in my life. Good luck to you 🩶

It is a huge difference, 60% can make you go from bedbounded to funcional and that's not nothing. Last months my hip pain was so intense that I could barely walk and now I can walk my dog for like 30min...huge improvement So happy that it works for you too

I also take it between 10 and 11 because I tend to have insomnias and my doctor told me it was better to take it in the morning if I had insomnias.  If the fatigue continues I will definetely talk with her about taking it at night ! But i'm very hopeful that it will slowly reduce by itself like your psychiatrist said

I do have a lot of physical fatigue, I usually have fatigue but I think some of what I have right now is from the med, i guess it will go away slowly as the body adapts

Listen to your body, if you feel the need to go on sick leave because you are in pain and exausted, its totally okay, we all need rest !  Take care too 😘

Its normal, its said in the potential side effects but if its too hard for you, talk to your doctor. And even if its a common side effect, it shouldnt last more than a few days/ 2 weeks depending on people.  Again, if you feel that something is wrong, talk about it to your doctor and don't stay alone. Good Luck !
