What Is One Thing, Or A Few Things, That You Miss The Most That Fibro Took From You? Mine Are Listed Below.

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Columbus, OH

1. Exercising (running - 3 mile run, P90X, TaeBo, Insanity). Yes, I used to do all of those things. Fibro gets worse every year and I can barely walk, let alone run.
2. Wearing my sexy heels. I can barely wear flats now with my feet hurting so much. (I still try)
3. Enthusiasm to do... anything. I have no desire anymore 😞 (I force myself though)

Get a radioactive egg sandwich test. That will tell you how and if you are digesting. I found out I had gastroparesis. Mine comes from long term diabetes but there also is idiopathic gastroparesis.
