Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Cathy, I have had this since I was quite young (many years ago), I say i'm in a flare, when my body hurts without reason, I can't get out of bed, and am tired-although I can't sleep-which is insane, have spasms, drop things, after many years I can feel it coming on....I'd like to know when I am OUT OF a flare, so I can have my life back. Used to be only cold weather bothered me, now cold and hot weather, rainy weather, bother me too. My entire right arm is covered with poison ivy, compared to the burning pain that I have, the poison ivy doesn't bother me a bit, the skin stretching over the blisters when I move my arm bothers me the most! I try to tell my husband that I can cope with problems like this-or sprained ankles, broken toes, etc, but I have a hard time coping with the FMS symptoms that NO ONE ELSE can see, or the pain that is there for no reason.. kmnewberry@... _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
