Does anyone suffer with fibromyalgia and how do you cope with it? My wife has it, she doesn't cope very well in pain a lot of the time, but pain killers do help. Try to exercise a little if you can, However, some days are worse than others. My mother has it.She takes her medicine and keeps on going.Alot of days she has trouble but she doensn't let it get her down.They told her she would be in a wheelchair in less than a year...Its been 9 and she is still walking.You just have to accept it and face it head on.Do the things you enjoy and are capable of.For instance,My mother runs a fibro support group on the internet.She is also invovled with various charities from home.Its a tough road but one that can be walked and enjoyed.Good luck and hope you feel better. I do. I cope with it by answering questions about it and writing webpages on the subject: http://www.geocities.com/seabulls69/fibr... Learn as much as you can about it and be willing to try different things because no one thing works for everybody... http://www.immunesupport.com/chat/forums... (free registration on the best bulletin board for FM and CFS there is) BTDT@TheSchoolofHardKnocks.com My patients I look after vary in symptoms from person to person. They are all treated symptomatically. The families who support these lovely patients aslo need support too. Sometimes, the families get to know each other and forma network between ech other, exchange phone numbers and meet up for coffees to have a break. That way they are refreshed upon returning home. am a nurse. I've trained in Bowen therapy, though I don't actually practise at the moment. In our therapists news groups, news letters and publications etc, I am always seeing case studies and articles about helping people with fibromyalgia. You can go to this website to find a therapist local to you. http://www.bowentherapists.com/bter/ther... |
