Outside of constant pain I'm just great!Unfortunately I'm one who doesn't have flairs, it's just always there. I'm seeing about getting a spinal stimulator to try to lessen my back pain from arthritis. If anybody else has had one I'd appreciate input on how effective it is. I'm praying it helps, if it'll cut the back pain I think I could handle my fibro pain better. Other than that just enjoying our beautiful sunny fall days! Trying to gear up for Christmas but just can't get going yet!

Hey HL

I'm he same way...no flairs, constant pain. I try to take very little meds because I'm like a zombie if I do. Let me know how the spinal stimulator works if you end up with it. Most of my pain is in my hips and neck area. I just want one day Pain free. good luck and let us know.


Gentle hugs

That would be great! I think I'm driving my husband bonkers since I am in some sort of  PAIN every single day! However, with the weather changing OMG I hurt so so so bad!!! How are you feeling??

Well, I hurt today....unlike any other day. Wenr you have a bad day come here......I am going to make an effort to stop by more and say hello.

:O)

Yes we should be on the board more. A chat would be nice with just us fibro people. I am in constant pain too. I hurt so bad. I volunteer as part of the foster grandparent program and  work at the alternative high school. I work 4 days a week, 8:00- 2:00 and I ome home ready to go to bed for the night I am so exhausted and hurt so bad. Every morning I get up i wonder if it will be my last as one of these days I will just say I hurt tooo bad to go in. My arthritis is also bad. I have 2 total knees and 1 total  shoulder replacement just this April. My MD said one time I do not know why all your joints are attacked.. Where the arthritis is not the fibro is...
Sorry I feel sorry for my self today.....

Pam,
  Your not feeling sorry for yourself.....you just have fibro. I just had an MRI done of my hips to see whats going on there. We need to talk about this---good and bad. Lets try and use the board more then we have in the past.

Gentle hugs
