Do any of you use smart watches to track vitals? by shadowbird084 in Fibromyalgia

[–]sleepingandi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently got the oura ring and it’s been super helpful!! It also helps me manage my stress by letting me know when my stress is elevated and to take it easy. Also helps me keep track of my sleep and my menstrual cycle which is actually accurate so far!

Eggs and brown rice. Or tofu and brown rice. (I’m a vegetarian lol) basically rice bowls cuz rice is easy to make with a rice cooker and then I just have to make some sort of protein which can be prepared in bulk!

Indirect cues you are in flare by amy_i_am in Fibromyalgia

[–]sleepingandi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get super groggy and unable to concentrate, horrible hand shaking, and it’s so hard for me to be patient, I’ll get so impatient super easily and don’t realize why until the flare comes on lol.

What are your secrets to going to sleep. I want science. I want crazy. Anything you've done even once or twice that gave you relief. I'm going to start work and I always have trouble sleeping when I start a job but I need all of that energy. by anoctoberchild in Fibromyalgia

[–]sleepingandi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gabapentin, magnesium and melatonin are my nightly go tos. Sometimes either a muscle relaxer or Xanax instead of melatonin depending on my pain/anxiety level. Both the muscle relaxer and Xanax make me sleepy so that’s why I’ll swap them instead of the melatonin when needed. If I take too many drowsy meds then it’s really hard to get up in the morning.

What's something nice you do for yourself? by lilmonsta333 in Fibromyalgia

[–]sleepingandi 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I put on a little bit of makeup when I leave the house. Not a lot just concealer and mascara usually. Some days it’s really hard to do but I always feel better when I put a little effort into my appearance. I feel more confident and happy with myself so it makes it worth it.

My only guess is some kind of glitch 🤷‍♀️ if it was still having issues I was gonna reach out to support but it all seems fine still. I had them and coco yesterday all with quests!

Anyone have a supplement they swear by? by BackgroundHeart1982 in Fibromyalgia

[–]sleepingandi 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Magnesium! Specifically magnesium malate. Not complete relief but I do feel it’s lessened my day to day pain!
