I have been working the program for 2 months an now and love it ut I have a problem I need to address. I have fibromyalgia and have had it for years. When you have flares you feel just yucky and it can lasts for days or weeks sometimes. I am having a flare and realized that I am not very nice to myself during these times. I will rest and take it easy for a day or 2 and then I say oh heck suck it up and move on. My mood now is yucky and I'm getting very anxious. I need coping skills for now and the future....Please help...I'm feeling just....crazy!

I HAVE IT TO :) IT COMES AND GO'S, ON MY THUMB AND ON ONE HIP. MY DR. GAVE ME SOME CORDISONE TAPE AND IT HELPS. HE SAID DON'T LET IT GET ANY AIR. YOU JUST CUT WHAT YOU NEED AND TAPE OVER IT. BOY I LOVE THIS STUFF. BECAUSE I CAN'T TAKE STIROID BY MONTH, THEY MAKE MY BLOOD PRESURE GO UP. HOPE THIS IS OF SOME HELP TO YOU. I HAVE HAD IT FOR GOING 6 YEARS OR SO. HAVE A GREAT DAY. MARY
