Hey everyone! How are you feeling today?

In addition to the usual stress and anxiety triggers that everyone encounters, fibromyalgia patients also experience new ones. Fibromyalgia symptoms can be unexpected and limit your activities, which can cause issues at work, at home, and in your relationships.😥

You could discover that you frequently cancel plans, call in sick, and miss out on memorable events. Many persons with fibromyalgia and chronic illnesses in general experience a sense of loneliness and isolation.

Have you experienced feeling isolated, depressed, or anxious with fibromyalgia? Feel free to share your experiences!

Take care,

Polina from the Carenity team

After being diagnosed with celiac disease and going gluten free, most all of my pain symptoms have disappeared. On top of a bunch of other random symptoms.

its worth looking in to or trying out!

good luck!

@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

@Somya.P My neurologist gave me a script through the state dispensary for aid with sleep. It helps with sleep. The script is for low dose THC, so it aids with minor pain. I have learned through my trials of product that CBD gummies help with sleep, but not pain. In my state, CBD gummies can be bought at local corner stores.
