I have to wear loose fitting clothes. I can't stand anything tight against my skin. Showers make my skin itch and the bottoms of my feet sting like crazy.

I wonder the same thing after a shower! I'm red and blotchy like I have sunburn. Sometimes I scratch myself and the lines from the scratches look like a cat dug in, but sometimes, my skin feels so different so quickly. Very odd. Yrs, lots of different kinds of pain ... everywhere! Ugggggg!

I gave up on jewelry a long time ago. My PsA is so wonky at times I’m afraid to wear my wedding ring. I have decided that athletic clothes feel the best and they will move and stretch when you go

I literally feel your pain. I sometimes don't know how I can push through with so much pain and so many different KINDS of pain....like how many can there really be??? You have my empathy and support.

I definitely understand. So many of us with Fibro have this. My showers have to be cooler and lower pressure. The nerve endings are extremely sensitive to clothes.. has to be soft and light. Soooo many symptoms with this disease😔😖. Sending you soft, gentle hugs Fibrochic🦋💜🦋, Deb
