—-Hey, there’s more fibro info down here—-
I haven’t written or recorded a basic post/video about the symptoms of Fibromyalgia… .even though that is the very illness that prompted me to start my Health Adjacent blog and YouTube channel. I guess I feel like it’s something that most people generally understand. But after recording this video, I realized that though awareness about the illness has increased, there’s still a whole lot to be said.

If you’d like a run down of the symptoms I experience, be sure to watch the following video. I’ve included the basics:

Generalized pain

Disturbed Sleep

Brain Fog or Fibro Fog

Sensory Overstimulation

I’ve also taken the time to talk about some of the other symptoms that affect me. Maybe they affect you, too. That’s the weird thing about Fibro…it’s different for everyone. Fun!

The one thing I forgot to mention in my video is this: people with Fibromyalgia have negative test results on all most all rheumatological panels. I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve walked in to a doctor’s office, feeling like total hammered dog shit and had them tell me “well, all of your tests came back normal.” As if that should make me feel better. Guess what…still in pain…still feel like hammered dog shit.

Anyway, without further ado, here’s the latest Health Adjacent video: Symptoms of Fibromyalgia.
