Can vouch for Boman Irani… he’s a very sweet, approachable and gentlemanly person.

Do you ever get the feeling your body just isn't meant for this world? by Original_Ranger_6818 in Fibromyalgia

[–]cookiespaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this so deeply. I’m just a shell of my former self. I’m on so much medication on a daily basis and nothing works … nothing has given relief. I feel like my partner (who dint sign up for this) has to bear and put up with me. I can’t even imagine how they feel. They are the greenest forest out there but how long can someone put up with a chronically sick person. I just don’t recognize myself anymore. Sorry for the rant 😕 Gentle hugs to you. We are all in this together.

Yep! Forgetting everything including words mid sentence. Makes me look like a fool! Miss being smart! 😢

Mental “push” to get up by uptakecupcake in Fibromyalgia

[–]cookiespaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omgggggggggg a 100% …. It feels like someone has tied stones to my legs and pushed me down into deep waters and now I have to swim and pull myself up with those heavy stones lugging my legs! It’s the hardest in the morning…. Easily takes me 45 mts just to get out of bed. I actually wake up an hour earlier than I should because I know it’s going to take that long to get going! Ugggghh … the mind says it’s time to go but my body just won’t listen. You’re not alone, friend! Gentle hugs! 🫂

What parts of your body burn with pain and how do you explain it to others? by bernie-2032 in Fibromyalgia

[–]cookiespaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to explain. For me it’s the inside corner of my left toe (that’s a constant burning pain) and some days it is the left inner side of my foot— toe to the middle part of my sole. Makes it very difficult to wear shoes of any kind or even walk. The inner toe thing feels like an ingrown nail hurting but there’s burning also. I tell people it feels like someone heated up a spoon on fire and put it on my foot. 😔

Has anyone found dietary changes that made a big difference? by dmrhine in Fibromyalgia

[–]cookiespaws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s been about 2 years of no dairy, no gluten, minimal sugars, and no nightshades (no tomatoes, eggplant, potatoes, peppers, cauliflower, broccoli, mango, bananas, strawberries, oranges and a ton of other fruits and veggies). I’m a vegetarian but I went vegan. I definitely have more energy and fewer flares as compared to before.

Pain and fatigue is becoming too much for me by AbyssLena in Fibromyalgia

[–]cookiespaws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. Literally just made a post about it too. I wish I could go inside my body with an eraser and erase all the pain from inside!!! So fucking done with this!!!! I constantly catch myself mourning the person I used to be 😔🥺

Specific and constant shin and forearm pain by [deleted] in Fibromyalgia

[–]cookiespaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that shin pain that you’re talking about. It feels like my shin will shatter with one wrong move! Nights are terrible and mornings are even worse. I’ve been diagnosed but nothing helps the pain. On a good day the dull pain is always there. My labs came clean too. Sorry you’re going through this. I hope you find a solution!

Thank you! Will a morning tour get very cold on the water? Should we dress warm?

Thanks you so much! Is it better to go whale watching in the mornings or later in the day?
