I get that in my thighs right after working out...don't know why. I have heard

that it is a symptom of fibro or can be a side effect of some meds. Look up

your meds and see if they could be it. Also, B12 and magnesuim deficiancies can

do this. Do you have any around you could take to see if it helps? If it's

really bad, I would call your Dr. Also, I'm sure you know to take a muscle

relaxant if you have any.........Please keep us posted on what's going on......

Hi all,

Yesterday I overdid it, even went for a walk for " exercise " well this

morning I could barely get out of bed for the pain. I wound up calling

in sick at work. My muscles all over are just taking turns just kind of

jerking all over. Has anyone else experienced this??? It is rather

disconcerting. I'm forcing myself to stay in bed and just rest. My leg

pain is unbearable so I just took a half a vicodin and I'm gonna try to

take a nap...will check back later.

Hope the rest of you have a good day.

Love,

Whenever we go on vacation to Monterey, I can go out and about with my

walker one day, but the next day I am in bed all day. It's just all part of

the

fibro.

I hear ya, Debi. I worked in my garden for several hours on two days

this week (Mon and Wed). It was wonderful. On Wed. I had really

severe joint pain, like I was afraid the Voltaren that I've switched

to wasn't working. By Wed. night it was a full-fledged fibro flare.

Yesterday I wanted so badly to go out and dig in the dirt, but was

really disciplined and took the day off. Meaning I did laundry and

extensive food prep, and even ran the vacuum to get up all that black

kitty hair that my new kitty has left all over the place. By last

night I was really tired. But today my joints don't hurt like they

did 2 days ago. I definitely feel better. But I think I will take

today off too from yard work. It's too bad because it's going to be

in the 70's and the sky is already blue and the sun is shining and

it's only 6:30. The pollen count is off the wall and I wouldn't be

surprised if that's part of the reason for both the arthritis flare

and the fibro flare.

Oh well, if I run out of things to do I can always clean my kitchen

cupboards. :::: sigh ::::

1. While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as

to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr. 

Some treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to

certain health conditions or just dangerous in general.

2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't be

afraid to ask for help.  It is the first step to trying to make that situation

better.

3. To unsubscribe the e-mail is:

Fibromyalgia_Support_Group-unsubscribe

4. Also, it is not uncommon for more than one member to be feeling bad at the

same time when it comes to flares and b/c of that potentially take something

another member says the wrong way.  And that includes the things that one

member may find funny (even if it's laughing at fibro itself) even though we who

deal with illness whether one such as fibro or multiple illnesses try to keep a

sense of humor.

5. Pls let's be gentle with each other, and if you are having a bad day pls let

us know so that we can do our best to offer our support.

Have a nice day everyone.
