Really strugling today got woken by my hands being really swollen so that my rings were digging into my fingers, They are still swollen but not as bad my ankles feel swollen so do my knees and my knees feel like somebody has hit them with a sledghammer.
I cant grip very well and walking is hard going along with muscles twitching in my back had enough already today just cant cope anymore really really fed up
hope the rest of you are not to bad today xxx
you have to fight through it - I know that's not easy believe me! Your body needs to rest today and maybe tomorrow will be a better day x chin up you're not alone xx
I'm sorry to hear you're having such a bad day.
Do you have another diagnosis alongside Fibro - e.g. of Rheumatoid Arthritis? If not, see your GP about the swelling - ideally before it goes down. Fibro is not an inflammatory disease and shouldn't cause swelling like that.
Hi Lindsey I have thyroid prob as well as fibro along with ibs, I have carpel tunnel in both hands but this has never happened before I am at the dr on fri will mention it
thank you xx
Hi Fairy lady sorry for asking a question on your blog 
But Lindsey if it isnt an inflammortary disease as well why do we get prescribed anti inflammatories like ibruprofen and naprosyn?
I quite often get swollen hands and legs and naturally assumed was down to this!
xx
lots of hugs please try and rest today. tomorrow is another day with fibro x xxx

You seem to have so much going on - stress is fibro's worse enemy............
I am feeling terrible today - have had a bad 6 weeks but things seem to be getting worse. I've booked to go to docs tomorrow but not sure what he can do, I just worry sometimes that it maybe something else and I just put everything I'm feeling down to Fibro.
Anyway chin up have a good day xx
well yes I do but it seems thats what my life is one struggle after another
I am sorry that you have been bad for so long and its getting worse
I know what you mean about thinking it is something other than fibro
I have blurred vision alot and the loss of sensation in my hands and legs worries me I have considered asking my dr tomorrow if it could be MS the symptons are very similar
It is good that you are seeing the dr tomorrow see what he says
if there is anything else I can do just let me know
Do you have friends near by?
thinking of you
big soft hugs
