To everyone suffering from fibromyalgia, aerobic exercises like walking/swimming/cycling as well as meditation, muscle stretching and strengthening..good sleep..healthy diet (Minimal junk, minimal sugar) has helped me massively to keep going through the days..with good energy, good mood..the pain is still there but in very lesser intensity..Live healthy and active..that's the mantra for fibro..I wish healing and happiness to all those suffering through this disease.. Remember Fibro is NOT a progressive disease...and with discipline, some patients have even reported to remission of symptoms.. Yes we can do this!! ❤️

[@NO-gd4ds]

I’ve had fibromyalgia since I was 25. Not at 58 I still suffer from major pain everywhere. I also suffer from degenerative disk disease, chronic cluster/.migraines. I’ve tried bio-feedback, nerve blocks, massage therapy, drugs, acupuncture, herbs, nutrition and reconstructive therapy via an Osteopathic orthopedic specialist referred to me by The Boston Pain Clinic, and 100s of other conventional as well as non-conventional treatments that you can think of. Nothing has ever helped except for deep tissue massages every 2 weeks that allows me to remain partially mobile. While I completely understand the concept of educating an individual on the process and factors involved since I am a retired Special Education teacher that specialized in abnormal behavior/ deviance disorders, I can state this does nothing at all. I’ve experienced a few short periods of remission, but it never lasts long. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on mattresses, massage tables, tens units, herbs, minerals, pillows, creams and special diets with nothing to really promote as being effective. Fibromyalgia can and does cause other conditions that are damaging to the body. Classified as an auto immune deficiency, I can attest to the easy at which I contract viruses, thyroid problems, system, and chronic digestive issues. All which are symptoms of having fibromyalgia. Really wish you guys would do an updated video. Respect!

[@personalitymanager1580]

A "good brisk walk" feels good and helps feelings of well-being, yes--until 24 to 48 hours later when the horrible pain sets in. ???

[@ruzaikaarshad]

Personality Manager for me it’s almost immediately the pain sets in.

[@wait-what-really.]

I was thinking the same thing. You get back and have to sit for at least a half hour because your feet hurt and it actually feels like you walked for miles. Hopefully you have left overs for dinner because lets face it, you ain't going to have the ability to stand and cook now. You do some squats (I do this often) while brushing your teeth in the morning and than wonder why 2 day later why the back of your legs are sore. Lets face it, these well meaning people really have no friggin idea what life is really like. We have to plan our whole day out around pain and endurance.

So glad you explained about pain. It is usually a signal that something is wrong or needs attention. But education is important in these matters. I had Guillain-Barre Syndrome and experienced some excruciating, exquisite pain that was constant. I usually have a high tolerance for most types of pain and this seemed almost unbearable. My doctor explained there were some meds available, but did not recommend their use. He explained like you did that I was "hurting but not harmed". That became my mantra for several long months. So glad I did not take meds as I learned it can cause short term memory loss. Love your channel! I do some of your exercises and recommend you to my clients as I am a licensed massage therapist.

People here comment on walking. I have been living and working with FM all my life, Twenty Nine years since A major flare that has altered my life. Yes I deal with all the symptoms of FM. I was lucky. In 1991, I met a PT that worked with FM patent's and worked with me. I could not function, work any thing. It took over six months of working thru pain. Yes made worse by even walking. Now after nearly three decades, I still walk almost every day even if I feel so bad you just want to die. At least you can smell the air, walk around the block. I walked over four miles yesterday. And yes I came home exhausted. Today ? No flare ups from my activety. If you let FM win. Inactivity makes it worse. I tell you. Just get out and walk. Yes it gets worse before you get better. No walking doesn't cure FM. Just makes your life a little better. Naproxen Sodium helps with the pain. Same thing as with walking. Over the counter 230 mg Taken two pills three times a day. If I can I maintain at two a day, Its the only thing that I found that helps. So just get out of bed and walk.It takes effort,working thru the pain. One day you will look back and say wow. Walking has been a big part of my life. I still feel like crap. Some days worse than others, even so bad I cant walk. I do work also. It can be done, I have met other FM that walk also.

I never even managed to get diagnosed. After going from specialist to specialist, and loosing the job that provided health insurance, I gave up on doctors. I just tried to push through the pain and treat myself. This past year I gave up on even that. Now at least I finally look like I feel. Edit: I'm finally on Medicaid. So, I'm finally seeing doctors again. So far Fibromyalgia is one of the things that is being treated and we are looking into other autoimmune diseases as well. And I did test positive for Lyme disease antibodies. So, I have had it in the past. I think it is very likely that Lyme disease is what initially triggered much of the rest. But at least now I have doctors who are trying to help me. That gives me hope.

THANK YOU! You are a bIessing to people with problems with the body and most do in some way or another, it seems. I have had this among several things, for over 15 yrs ( normally it happens that way, you end up with more and more things happening given time) and it kills me, as I used to be so well.. and the Northeast ''cold weather/dampness'' really makes me worse with the arthritis and yes, stress or overwork or over exercise ,which is hard anyway. But have found the music called something BEATS on You Tube, for Fibromyalgia , Arthritis, back pain etc etc etc.. and it sounds stupid, but it seems to calm the nerves or something ,and it helped something within me? People feel if you 'LOOK alright, you are fine!" That is nice of them, but does not help.If they only knew the whole truth of it and how hard you fight each day. I appreciate the book suggestion, and all the help with physical therapy. I have had it so long , and have read alot about it. But wish I knew where on earth it came from? This pain can depress anyone. I have the ability to make myself look right and act right, in front of people but later fall apart. I have to "pace myself" but my problem is after being so energetic that people at work said I made " them tired just talking about things that I would do as activities director in adult home" But now I cannot keep up with 80 yr old's! But I will survive. I pray.... But people wonder why I look alright and act alright and then I cannot come to all the meetings or do things one day and then do it alright the next? I have to now stop caring' what people think!' But it bothers me. TY!

[@katharineapplegath-gordon514]

When I fell and hit the last step recently while holding a 22lb Toddler and my rib area would start to bruise immediately if I didn’t apply any ice on it right away. When my body hurts from being with a Toddler all day long. I find Espom Salt baths with Eucalyptus oil and Arnica help greatly. Also having an anti-inflammation diet, also absolutely no sugary drinks or Sodas of any type. Reduce your carbs as well. The pain still exist but is reduced when I do moment exercise to Prince music with my therapeutic moments along with his music , it is very helpful to begin my day with him.

Hi everyone, you guys are great! Lots of good information. I’m a male in 60’s have AS and fibromyalgia. I did a lot of pt in my life but need to credit a yoga teacher for my best fibromyalgia relief. Get a private class to see what you can do and what is best for you. Don’t be afraid to dump a pt or a yoga teacher , they all mean well but many don’t get it. Yoga with the breathing exercises and spinal opening exercises are great ! If I had known what was going on with me earlier I would have postponed where I am. Not negative,just stating that skip the American idea that yoga or pt is weak, do what is needed. It was best thing for me to do, I still do what I can today and am able to keep fibromyalgia at bay. Bless you all , the journey is fun.

I have fibromyalgia, essential tremor with ataxia (that I’ve had my whole life), Hashimoto’s + I get tired very easily. I also have a frozen right shoulder and a deep brain stimulator to help with essential tremor & a lead that goes from my thalamus where the electrodes are on either side of my brain down the right side of my neck to the rechargeable battery on the right side of my chest. I’ve tried p.t. but I get so tired &/or I’m in so much pain I don’t do the exercises. However, I’ve subscribed to your channel & I hope it gets me motivated because your program is on video and not on a piece of paper. I’m sorry Bob has ataxia & I will pray for him. Because of ataxia I’ve fallen a lot my whole life - even at the top of a slide when I was in 4th grade & got dizzy& fractured an arm when I fell. I used to be flexible physically & could do a lot more when I was younger: stretching, walking, hiking dancing, bike riding outside. But I’m 68 now with not much energy, dizziness, plodding heavy footsteps & (mostly) ever present pain). I’ve learned from my neurologist that I may have Parkinson’s staring me in the face 5 years from now because of the ataxia. I learned somewhere on the internet that qigong (pron. chigong) + kimchi might help stave off or quell Parkinson’s symptoms. Do you have ANY SPECIFIC EXERCISES FOR ATAXIA? Thank you so much!🕊

[@ashleighhennessy]

Just wanted to add, systemic inflammatory fibromyalgia is a thing - whenever I have gone to a physiotherapist for my severe fibromyalgia pain, they have all diagnosed real inflammat and injuries / systemic causes for the pain, due to systemic inflammation not just in my brain - so e.g. my feet roll inwards and my hips rotate outwards too much, which led to me developing quads tendonitis and bursitis in both needs (I was unable to walk for around 10 weeks but had severe pain for 2yrs), weakness in my right glute and quad, iv also torn my rotator cuff in my right shoulder from trying to change some bedsheets! And I also get tennis elbow, costochondritis and have pulled my intercostal muscles twice (from coughing, then from being pregnant 1st trimester), and i used to have severe back pain that caused nerve pain all over my body for about 5yrs (that was back when my fibromyalgia started). Oh yh, and iv also got a fibroid tumour in my uterus, poly cysts and an enlarged ovary, PID and endometriosis. So all of my severe pain is due to real inflammatory issues and injuries, not just my pain signals being hyperactive, which is a common misconception about fibromyalgia for some reason. Just wanted to share. Throughout these injuries, all of which I acquired from trying to do normal day to day activities rather than actual things you'd expect to cause an injury, iv found your videos super helpful! :)

I take vD, I’m in Arizona right now and sitting I think he sun for 5 minutes feels good, like a heating pad. Then all my joints lock up and the pain is worse than when I started. Sigh.

[@HerbalND]

The sun helps me too, but walking while in the sun is even better, because it helps with the anxiety that fibromyalgia causes as well as strengthening and stretching muscles and tendons. One of the supplements that helped me the most personally, is taking vitamin D3. I started taking high levels when this pandemic started and as a result, it help with the fibromyalgia pain. Best to get vitamin D levels checked if possible. By the way if exercising hurts, build up and do it anyway. You will be so happy with the results. Not just walking, but things like stretching exercises, Pilates, and weightlifting are extremely helpful. Yes it will hurt but that’s what the muscles want.

How can you run if you are so fatigued and in pain that you can hardly get out of bed?

[@marizza4]

Vicki Frederick i used to run marathons, so I love running and really miss it. Every now and then when I have a good day I go for a very slow and short run and after that I’m paying for that excursion next five days, it completely knocks me out

[@delorestabor9721]

I have pain from exercising . Rest helps me more. Stress is my enemy.

[@leighmastrarrigo7164]

Can't find the book you are referring to on your website about Fibromyalgia .. Where can I get it? What is the name of it?

[@lisamorgan6771]

This is totally amazing!! I'm still in shock, it's so unbelievable!! I've been living with GENITAL HERPES VIRUS for 6 years, I'm so happy I got rid of the virus with Herbal Product.

Im 47 ex hockey player was super fit... 10 years ago i found i had kidney cancer. Had surgery it worked but later developed Fibromyalgia it's so debilitating and depressing.

[@estherstone4860]

I don’t have fibromyalgia, but I’ve had good results with using other alternative approaches to 1- diverticulitis: A diet using simple system of food combinations stopped the flairs, and 2) sinus migraines (I found a KZbin video showing simple massages on my face that took 15 minutes). Because sinus meds quit working! Good luck! My cousin’s wife really suffers with that.

[@belindamartinez8441]

Where. can I get the book?

[@202cardline]

I’m back bob and brad, I threw out my back and now I’m diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, POTS and RA so in one sense I absolutely love your advice, but in the case of RA it’s degenerative (is that the right word?) so sometimes my pain is harming me (KZbin comment section is my therapy today I guess) and LOL I have a 150 heart rate from just standing. Hey I wish that meant anything good. Sigh. I gotta get that book though.

[@MIlw55]

Does the pain come on very fast and leave just as fast? I think I have had this for years.

[@naylamoreaux4106]

With fibromyalgia can you get wobbly and shaky inside?

[@ellencoppell9277]

You sure can, besides the nerve pain. May I suggest you go see a neurologist to rule out essential tremor and ataxia? I’m not trying to scare you, it’s better to know what’s going on with your body than not to know. Trust me, I’ve been there. Blessings to you.🕊

[@nanwilder2853]

I’ve had Fibromyalgia since my pre-teens, and am now in my late 60s… Back then, Dr.’s called it “Growing Pains”, and we were supposed to outgrow them. I remember going to my West Coast city’s Teaching Hospital in my late teens, and being diagnosed with Osteo-Arthritis ; while living on my own/having to work by 19. (Years later, I was told it was a mis-diagnosis). I also recall having FLARE-UPS of (what I thought was Arthritic) pain in my early 20s-mostly in my wrists/hands/fingers/arms-as well as a few other spots in my body. Not until I was in my forties (as a college student) was I poor enough to get on Medicaid, and finally find out it was Fibro. On the other hand, I also have Arthritis, which I know nothing about, except that I did not test positive for RA. On days when the Fibro is obviously active, I end up in bed, and eventually fall asleep. It’s still mostly in my hands, fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, with lots of fatigue and possible Depression. I say possible because I was diagnosed (in my 40s) with the severe AD/H/D that I long suspected, along with some other Spectrum Disorders, and Dysthemia, which is Chronic, Low-Grade Depression, which I’ve had as far back as I can recall. (Actually, it’s now a deeper Depression, and the deaths of 2 of my 3 siblings, plus one of my 2 grown children, in 2022, didn’t help). My physical Disability is from six Spinal conditions, including Spondylothesis on my L-4/5 vertebrae, just to make things more confusing! My only income is $914 a month in SSI, so I cannot pay for a workbook ; is it something my Dr. could prescribe, perhaps? Thank you for your good work, Bob and Brad.

[@nanwilder2853]

My browser won’t let me edit, so I’ll self-correct here : Spondylolisthesis is the correct spelling, not what I typed above. P.S. Our temperature is going down today, and I’m feeling the Fibro/Arthritis come on strong, all over… At 12:35PM all I want to do is go back to bed! I’m useless, so that is what I’ll do. Also, the pain affects my ability to type. Take good care, everyone.

[@Phoenix487559]

Dr Weir’s 4-7-8 breathing technique has helped me in SOOO many ways. If you can’t walk, try some squats and arm movements for a min or so at least to get the blood pumping. Arm circles while slowly walking in the morning with my dogs has helped me with both my pain and my anxiety. Watching the sun rose out getting a happy light helps awaken the brain and relieves brain fog and sets circadian rhythm which I have had a huge problem with for many years from my bipolar disorder. Now it’s worse with my fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. So it’s more important than ever to do it every morning.

[@nanwilder2853]

Ashley, Thank you so much for your generous, informative comment! I especially love your point about the Circadian Rhythm, as I struggle with that, as well. Also, great reference to Dr. Weir, whom I was just about to look up when I saw your comment! (I greatly respected him years ago, and want to renew that connection, as I’m struggling with more than I can handle, health-wise). Best wishes, Ashley ; please take good care!

[@nanwilder2853]

My browser won’t let me edit, so I’ll self-correct here… Just realized that I was actually referring to Dr. Andrew Weil, not Weir! My bad….

Had fibromyalgia for 30 years. Have appt to get a spine stimulator. Not much faith in other treatment helping after this long. Almost bed ridden at this point

[@chrisl418]

I recently saw a KZbin video by a Dr studying fibromyalgia who reported that he suspected a central nervous issue. They didn't have a lot of money for research, so they took x-rays of the necks and I forget what other part of many patients with fibromyalgia and discovered that in a large portion of them they had neck alignment issues where the nerves were being pinched! If you have it, it might be something to check out. I suspect my daughter has fibromyalgia rather than RA. It's something we can check out.

[@nanwilder2853]

The name of the Dr. would be most helpful!

[@a.p.5429]

Is there any study where people share their experiences. I have learned so much more from other sufferers and what they tried.. I can tell myself that I'm not being injured by the pain but when I'm hurting like hell it does not make me feel any better. Avoiding inflammatory foods can help. Therapudic massage can release the knots and adhesions that form but hurts your wallet. Increasing anti-inflammatory supplements may help. We all seen to suffer the same common pain and fatigue but other things differently. I am sensitive to chemicals, strong smells, light, fabrics can be intolerable if not very soft, a firm touch is painful, strong changes in barometric pressure can set off flare ups. Of course it is much worse during flare ups but this stuff is everyday. Ask me if I get depressed. Who wouldn't. I go to sleep with ice packs. Maybe that can help someone.

[@hangin-in-thereawesome4245]

Since I started taking a med for fibromyalgia I find that so far its not helping my pain much and I have developed headaches. My physician says its a side effect. There are days that I don't get out of bed!

[@thefreddyfazpiza]

I had many issues out of this FM For back pain I take gabtin 300, it helped a lot no more pain for the time being, take prozac for depression and vitamin D along with B 12 My main issue which I can't control or bear is that I can't breath well and feeling my chest is so tight with little activities, breathing exercises worsen the case and does not offer any help, what can I do with this issue guys, I can't live

[@lauraaldrich6348]

You are absolutely living in mold. Weather it’s in your house or car or work. I was there a year ago, and was completely ignorant about mold poisoning. Please do an ERMI air test as soon as possible!

[@vacantlots]

This way of thinking I think can be damaging. We don't look at someone with arthritis from joint wear and tear and say so this is hurting because you over used this joint let's look at why you are overusing this joint and delve into the psychology of why you have been doing the thing that has caused the overuse. I agree FM, in part, is brain and hypersensitive nerves or the blocking of the bodies own pain relief response and stress impacts greatly on this. But I also believe it is much more than that and to tell someone who is going through such pain, breathe deeply and remember you're safe is demeaning. Medication has to be at the forefront of this illness along with finding complementary therapies that work alongside. I felt this was a bit like saying "cheer up, it's all in your head" to someone with depression. (I have fibro and am finding the balance between meds and physical therapy)
