Is There A Particular Style Of Yoga That Has Helped Anyone Here?
I need a stretching type class because I'm so bad at doing things to help my situation at home. My thigh muscles are much tighter than any others and it causes my knee caps to pull up. I have trouble with lounges and various other positions but when I stretch it helps.

I'm Having Horrible Neck Pain With Severe Limited Range Of Motion. Any Suggestions For Relief?
I began getting a sore neck about three weeks ago it has since become unbearable. I'm not currently on any fibro meds and am really struggling with this. The pain is now causing headaches and anxiety issues. It feels as though my neck is swollen. I have been under a ton of stress so I'm not surprised I'm flaring! It's difficult to turn my head! Has anyone else ever experienced this and what did you do to ease the symptoms?
Dearheart
so very sorry for your pain
I experience similar; worsening, along w/lack of sleep and other disturbance.
My Nbeurolgist referred me to a Neurologist who specializes in Movement… read more
Low Blood Pressure
I have been hearing people talk about a lack of oxygen to the brain being a cause of inflammation, etc. I've seen where some say hyperbaric oxygen can cure fibromyalgia. So as I looked for ways to increase oxygen to the brain (exercise is certainly one), I find where low blood pressure will decrease oxygen to the brain. Wow, I have low blood pressure. The other night it was 81/60, though it is usually 90/70. Do any of you have consistently low blood pressure? Cause maybe this is one path to… read more
I've thought about trying Hyperbaric Chamber but insurance won't cover it arghhhh

@A MyFibroTeam Member
The fact that you are aware you are doing it and are accountable afterwards is good, friend
Some people never reflect and get that kind of insight.
In my experience, this is… read more

Leg Cramps After Busy Day
Does anyone have leg cramps after what my body determines is a busy day? My back aches, my stomach aches, and my leg aches like crazy!!! Always happens. And though I usually ache somewhere always, this leg ache goes away if I take NSAIDs and rest.
I also have it. But when it gets really bad my legs won't hold me up and I fall.
What Do You Look For When You Pick Team Members?
Funny question, I know. But I always wonder why people pick me to join their team. What are we all looking for in a team member? I often worry when I am chosen because I am very opinionated about fighting our illness with exercise, diet and positive attitude. Many of you have read about my "joy shots" that I look for every day. You can find joy inspite of our painful lives. Lots of people don't agree so I was just wondering what y'all looked for in your team members. Have a blessed day and find… read more
If someone wants me on their team, I will add them to mine. We are all in the same boat more or less and we can learn from each other. Plus, I would support anyone going through a rough time. Many of… read more
