Flare up of Fibromyalgia

Last week I had a flare up of my Fibromyalgia, bought on by stress of life and a financial family issue! The pain is around the top's of my feet, around my thumbs, in my knees and around my shoulders. I have various tools I use that I have learnt from Access, one of them being asking myself 'How does it get better than this? what else is possible? which sounds daft when you are so frustrated with the pain you are in. The fatigue it hard Saturday night,  I just had to stop and sleep and then rested all day Sunday. Heat is a great help for me, so I use an infrared blanket and go to hot yoga. I also use Vicks vapor rub and strap up the areas I need to, it's starting to ease! A reminder to be kind to myself, unfortunately its quite hard to avoid stress and life!
