Well done Blue 52 🥳

This is the intermittent nature of fibromyalgia, there are moments of clarity or energy. It’s easy to be despondent when that brief moment of normality can’t be sustained, but I try and focus on the fact that it will recur and enjoy the moment.

It’s taken several years to begin to accept that I can’t fight the fatigue, I have to pace myself and when I do get a burst of energy not to push it.

I’m learning to do stuff in short blocks of time or effort, then follow with a few minutes shut eye.

I’ve been putting off getting a new phone because I worry I’ll have brain fog. I think your experience shows that you have to pick your moment and all will be well.

[Blue-52 in reply to RustyOBear]

It certainly is RustyOBear , we have our odd moments, I just took my time, and it all came flowing back 😀.

Yes we have to pace ourselves, I think we all learn that lesson.

Would you buy a mobile, or monthly contract?, either way, if you get it from a phone shop, they can advise you, obviously don’t let them set it up, just let them talk you through it. Or go on utube, why didn’t I think of that lol 😂.

I hope you have a pleasant day, thanks for your reply.

[RustyOBear in reply to Blue-52]

That’s good advice. Probably pay outright, unlocked. You Tube how to videos has proved very helpful for other things. I like that I can replay then pause periodically, to help go at my pace.

You can also choose the best tutorial that you can personally relate to and understand.

Have a good day yourself.

[Blue-52 in reply to RustyOBear]

Yeah, that’s what I did, didn’t want the monthly fee. And you can still get all the benefits.

Good luck, for when, and if you decide.

Thank you.

Thank you. Loving your username 😀

[Sillysausage234]

setting a phone up manually with fibro fog is impressive 😂

[Blue-52 in reply to Sillysausage234]

Thank you,

Well I did have a sleeping tablet, the night before, so that probably helped, today is a different matter, I would be getting quite stressed out 🤪

[Tim61]

Well done , let’s hope the brain fogs less of a problem in the future, now you’ve put it in it’s place 👍👍. Have you tried Tumeric that can help alittle to keep a clear head .

[Blue-52 in reply to Tim61]

Thank you. Today not such a good one, but I will kick it’s booty once again, soon I hope 🤞
