Fibromylgia

[Looking Ahead 239]

I have /am hurting so bad for the past three weeks with back, shouler and knee pain. I feel like I cant move anymore. Taking hour long hot baths. Helps till I get out. Someone PLEASE give me a home remedy that will help. Aleeve and Epson salt baths just arent helping.

I start my 2 week liquid diet next Monday.

The only thing that helped me was reducing stress and staying active, as contradicting as that sounds. The chiropractor helped a little too. The prescription meds made me too sick so I had to discontinue them. I'd try to stay away from Aleve since I think you'll have to discontinue that a week or two before surgery?

Yes, I'll have to stop taking it this week. Destressing is out of the question. I could be more active but by the end of my 9hr workday, I'm too exauhsted to do anything much less on purpose. I know that sounds like an excuse but I hurt so bad I can barely lift my arms or legs right now. I have a sit down office job from 8 - 5. If we're lucky we will get a break for lunch. Usually so behind, we just stay and work through it. Maybe after the sleeve I'll feel more like walking. I want to start it before my surgery June 25. So, from here, I'll just ask for prayers. Thank you for responding.

I'll definitely pray! The only thing that really worked for me was resigning from my job. I work part time now but I understand that's not an option for most people. It killed me to sit still for 8+ hours a day at work. Hang in there....
