She has trouble sleeping, and usually towards mid afternoon she has headaches, back pain, arm numbness, and swollen, red, hot knees.
Any advice anyone can give us in helping her cope with this would be greatly appreciated.

fibro and chronic my whole life found out this year it was that long explained allot
it will get worse with age it will get worse with trauma falling from playground trees etc
martial arts pure focus and center body and mind meditation
teaching and rewiring the mind and how it precieves pain
self meditation never quit or slow down the more you let fibro and pain run the show the more pain and not willing to be active she will be
stress is horrible on fibro
get multiple opinions like it or not she needs lyrica not narcotic but fibro and diabetic pain control
im on a beta blocker of something for migraines
home massage save money
move around till yo feel balls in her muscles and push as hard as possible to release them but lots of water it releases toxins
good luck
