Pain, fatigue, and cognitive issues linked to fibromyalgia can affect social life. Some people may feel isolated or misunderstood, which can worsen emotional distress.

👉 How has fibromyalgia changed your relationships with others?
👉 Have you had to give up certain social or friendly activities?
👉 Do you feel understood and supported by those around you?
👉 Have you found ways to stay socially connected despite the illness?

Your experiences are valuable — feel free to share in the comments!

Have a lovely day,
Somya.P from the Carenity team 💞

@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.
