Does anyone have a Fibro flare kit or just a box with stuff to help your fibro by your bed/where you frequently relax?

what's in it & how have you stored it?

Looking for inspiration of things that may help / what to keep close to hand.

Hi there,

I don't have a kit, but what a fabulous idea! I have a spare box looking for things to inhabit it, such as magnesium spray, ibuprofen, vitamins, my wrist splints etc.

It would be handy to have them near my bed, no littluns to fiddle with them, so no worries about accidental poisonings.

If there are kids in your household a cash box would be good, as it is lockable and you could keep the key with your door keys.

Cheers, Midori

Hi there, I keep medication, large jug of water, a book, notebook and pen, some nice hand cream or body lotion, lavender oil, and iPad to listen to nice sounds eg rainfall. I usually have a hot water bottle too but not this week!!
