You're right, Coyote. It HAS been mighty quiet around here lately. Maybe we all need to get some interesting threads going, huh?

I didn't do much today, myself. Washed a few loads of clothes...watch some football...spent some time with my kids. Nothing to get excited about...

How 'bout you? You do anything interesting?

Well, I had a long weekend because I called in sick today. Something's wrong with the picure when I'd rather be sick than to go to work.............long story.
I caught up on some reading. Can't do laundry because my washing machine drain overflowed twice yesterday..........
TV gets boring fast. Tonight I couldn't even stand the sound of it being on.
Back to the grind tomorrow.
Here in the Northeast, we are in the middle of rain, rain, and more rain. Already have H2O in the cellar.
Not much else new.

Default I agree -not many visitors at FM here

I also noticed there is not much participation here re: FM. I remember there was a lot more posts on the old Brain Talk FM forums. I am hanging out on the Chronic Pain area and rsd areas. Has anyone checked for anything on the old Braintalk FM site?

The BT FM forum is about the same. I accidentally went to the old forum, thinking it was this one because the color scheme looks the same. I was so confused!
As coyote said, it is raining like the dickens out here so my body is reacting to the cold and damp. Oh goody! My rosacea is starting to act up because of the switch to colder weather and my skin is drying up and uncomfortable. So I am a little grumpy about that.
I had PT along with my first acupuncture today. I hate to say that the PT works better. I just had little bzzts all up and down my left leg and nothing doin' on my right. I guess its not for me. Luckily the treatment was a trial run by my physiatrist so he didn't charge me. I am a tad sore because of all the body work done today....which accounts for why I am up so late.
Otherwise...I am as right as rain....no pun intended coyote!

I guess the bad old rain is getting us all now...LOL. We finally had a clear day in VA today, but tomorrow it's supposed to start all over again. Cold and dampness always aggravate my fibro to a considerable degree. Is this the same for all of you guys???

Yes...well it is for me anyway. I also have a problem with extreme heat and humidity. I think it has more to do with having to use AC than anything but I am not exactly sure.
We are expecting the same weather pattern. Ain't November grand???? And to think, I got married in November 5 years ago!

It is very quiet around here. Hopefully as time goes on, more and more people will come on the scene.

I'm latched on to this place for now. As I've said before, and I'll say it again...I like it here at NeuroTalk much better.

I recovered fairly well from my moving escapade on Sunday. It's just back to the same pain as before, minus the sore back muscles from moving.

And I hear ya on the weather. I've no doubt it gets me going to. I'm in the midwest and it's just very typical November weather! I'm a strange person though. I love snow and rain...when I don't have to go out in it, LOL. I love watching snow and rain from my couch at home where it's nice and cozy.

Yep...I guess we all hurt too much to post. This weather has been miserable for fibro! Yesterday was actually a nice one for a change, but hear the rain is making a come-back.

fibrowendy -- How did the acpuncture go? Did it help any with the pain? Do the needles hurt? It would be interesting hearing about your experience if you'd like.

Maybe this was discussed before...brain fog you know...but has anyone tried Lyrica? I have an appointment with my neuro next week (MS) and thought I'd ask for a trial. There HAS to be something to take away at least some of this pain. It's becoming unbearable at times. Do you find your FM progressing? Sure seems to be getting worse over the years. I don't like it!!! As if anyone does!!!

Have a less pain day everyone. Gentle hugs.
