Hey guys I know we all have different lupus symptoms and complaints and just wondered what kinds of home tricks and remedies have we learnt along the way?
This year I have found Epsom salts to be my. Best friend! It defiantly helps with my joint pains, swelling and muscle. The amount if time I spend in the bath is crazy (thank god for iPads) and getting out is murder getting out the bath but it's one of my few luxuries.
Whatshernameagain.....I was just going to take an Epsom salt bath last night because I was in so much pain from working out in the yard pulling weeds. I didn't want to take aspirin. I lied down on my brand new mattress for an hour, took a little nap and got up feeling much better. Not cold enough here yet for a bath. ha! Thanks for sharing. I use a heating pad for my shoulders when they are in pain. That works too. Not only is this a tiring disease, but it's exhausting coming up with remedies. Take care...and keep sharing
Oh I sooo wan to buy a heating pad! And those electric bootie things. I have an electric blanket which I love but it just makes me want to go straight to bed.
What kind of mattress do you use?
I recently stayed at my grandmothers and after sleeping on her mattress with an orthopaedic sleep other my bed doesn’t seem the same
Just got a firm mattress. Need to support back and shoulders strongly. Our old mattress was a foam mattress and u wouldn't get any support but sink into it. I am sleeping better, and hope this mattress will help. Hope u feel better .
