Question, has anyone with fibromyalgia gotten a flare where you feel like you are going through withdrawals but you are taking your meds?

I am so achy, in so much pain. I don't know what's going on. I've never experienced this while on my meds.

Having nurses and aids make envious comments about my weight is my least favorite thing.

”haha it’s scary seeing what the number is, huh?” yeah because it’s gone down, you absolute tit ”aw i wish i weighed that much”

MF NO YOU DON’T.

At my height and age I should be squarely sat upwards of 125lbs, but I’m not.

I struggle to gain weight and eating causes extreme intestinal distress -- but sure, I’ll gladly trade you my colon polyps, chronic nerve pain, myoclonic seizures, diarrhea, constipation, and food intolerances for the ability to be able to hold down a meal comfortably and keep weight on.

It’s like you’re supposed to be a professional here -- my body is not an ideal, it’s a fucking nightmare.

“In my dreams, I look in the mirror and I see my younger and healthier self. When I wake up in the morning, I put on my glasses and see my body falling to pieces. I feel the grief all over again as I come to terms with the shock. As I do... every single morning.”

When you have to be on top of your own medical shit because doctors, nurses, etc treat their job as a vacation

What the hell did I do to myself. I’m a zombie with noise sensitivity issues this morning. Switching rooms feels like too much effort and putting in head phones somehow as usual feels like even more effort.
