Hello,

How are you all today? 😀

With relentless symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, and sleep disturbances, fibromyalgia can not only prove to be very challenging for its patients, but also for their partners.

It doesn’t affect my relationship because we both have fibromyalgia.

Yes, it does, I want to do all the things and go on dates every Friday- but I can't because of my fibro. I always have to cancel which sucks. Even when I'm on dates, sometimes I want to leave early because I'm exhausted.

I feel broken, always in pain. Why can't I just be normal like before?!

@HelloKitty I started taking kratom when I was diagnosed with cervical dystonia, it means I have constant pulling of my neck and shoulder muscles. Botox is the primary treatment , 6 to 8 shots targeting muscles but its hit and miss. I told a friend about this and he told me about kratom, so I went to a kratom shop and talked to the owner. He learned I was an Army Veteran and sold me some capsules. Unbelievable the kratom knocked out the pain and relieved some of the spasms and pulling that was 5 years ago, and I am still taking it for chronic pain. I have found the vendors to trust and a fbook website to share experiences with others. Like all things kratom must be handled with common sense, and reading info on the web helps educate us all. IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT HELPS WITH MY CHRONIC PAIN

Yes I agree. Im on morphine and Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen and yours as well. I have some others also. If I want to work in the back yard, I am sleep mode if I set down. The next morning and at night is paying with great pain. Its a hard road in many ways. We have to keep going best as we can. Have a smile and good day to you. I have the stimulator too.
