Fibromyalgia is a disease that affects millions of people, mainly women that cause chronic pain, fatigue and cognitive problems. There is disagreement about the causes of fibromyalgia, sometimes called fibro or FMS, some say it is caused by nerves, some say it is hereditary, while others say it is caused by trauma. Many still believe fibromyalgia is psychosomatic, but is real for those who suffer.
There is no cure for fibromyalgia, it can not be managed. This is usually done by a combination of medication, rest, exercise and stress reduction. But you can control and what is important, in other words, perhaps better. Many people with fibromyalgia are still able to live productive and rewarding lives, some lifestyle changes needed.
Three Steps
If you have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, here are three things you can do today to help overcome the disease.
1. out of bed: As simple as it sounds, it is most important to beat your stage of fibro. Although tired and every part of you seem bad, you should get out of bed and start moving. Once you do, you will begin to feel the flow of energy in you and, above all, you will feel good about yourself.
Fibromyalgia is both affected by stress and causes stress. Many patients feel that they can not continue with their lives and feel useless, unproductive, and want to stay in bed all day. They are thus convinced or have been convinced by others that will no longer be able to contribute. Getting out of bed and do something, even something as simple as breakfast or walking the dog, at least they are doing something productive. They are gradually beginning to feel better and symptoms of fibromyalgia actually decrease.
2. Set goals: One way to help cope with fibromyalgia is to set goals for yourself each day. Whether you work or not, make a list of things you want to achieve and score when you complete them. They can be small goals, many people like to break a major task into smaller goals, making them feel that things are made.
You can use a simple calendar application on your phone or a handwritten list of things to do and not have to be complicated, as long as you have something you can refer to show that you have made progress. Many fibromyalgia patients feel worthless and do not contribute more, this is a great way for them to see that they something.Don't forget to reward every time you complete a task or achieve a goal.
Writing lists is also a good way to help remember what to do and steps to accomplish a task. Many fibromyalgia patients often have cognitive problems, also known as fibro fog, they forget what they do or how to do something, even something they have done for years. This is one of the most difficult symptoms for many patients to be treated.
3. Think positive: As Norman Vincent Peale used to say: "Never underestimate the power of positive thinking." Positive thinking helps fibromyalgia patients remain motivated and help feeling sorry for themselves. Many patients become convinced that they can not get out of bed and do something, and since they do not even try.
Positive thinking is the act of convincing themselves that they can get out of bed and do something. They may have to change their way of doing things, but do not let her beat fibromyalgia improve.
As mentioned above, patients are trapped in a cycle of feeling like they can not do something because your fibromyalgia is pointed then convince themselves if they do something, they will cause an asthma attack . It makes them feel worse. They increase their feelings of hopelessness and find less and less. They have to break this downward spiral. Positive thinking is how to do it. Many patients are surprised at how much you can really do.
You can beat Fibromyalgia
These are three simple steps you can take immediately to begin to live with fibromyalgia. Yes, you'll have to make adjustments to your life and way of doing things, but there is no reason you have to crawl into a hole so small that can not get out. Fibromyalgia differs from the severity from person to person, but even those with the most severe cases can work, make you feel better.
