My symptoms

For those of you that don't know much about fibromyalgia, I figured I better let you know how it effects me...
  • Throbbing pains in my neck, shoulders, upper, and lower back.
  • Stabbing pains in my feet and hands.
  • Headaches daily (before the diet change).
  • Migraines that took away my vision for hours (before the diet change).
  • Stress and Anxiety about random things.
  • Not sleeping through all of my cycles of sleep.
  • Tossing and turning all night in the bed.
  • Waking up feeling like I was in a very bad car accident.
  • Exhaustion similar to having Mono.
  • Heart palpitations that cause irregular breathing.
  • Having a horrible memory and forgetting really routine things (like names of friends).
  • Vision changes often.
  • TMJ
  • Inflamation
  • Getting sick often.
  • Over sensitivity to taste (mild salsa is too spicey), lights (dark days give me headaches).
  • Not being able to be touched/poked by people.
  • Hugs sometimes hurt.
  • Carrying items like groceries is too much of a job for me.
