How Does Weather Affect Your Fibromyalgia? And What Do You Do To Calm Symptoms?
For example, storms, snow, humidity. Does your diet help, rest, hot bath etc
My husband has fibro as well (just coincidence) and we can both feel a storm system coming into the area from a thousand miles away (seriously--we start to hurt and we look at the radar to see how far away it is lol). Humidity affects me badly--I feel drained, sore and get swollen ankles. Hot baths usually help, yep even in the heat because you tend to lose heat quicker afterwards and you'll feel cooler--so my ankles go down and the muscles are eased.
I can tell when we are going to get a storm or rain way before it comes. my arms and legs will ache horribly and I will get a bad headache.
Yes it's the rain coming that hurts as the barometric pressure drops. I take hotbepsom salt baths and other things Rest Compression on my knees using knee braces They really help
I always know when the weather change, Heat works for me, heated beenie bag, hot stone massage, aromatherapy massage, and coupy your mind with something you love. Even read a book. Good luck, hugs
