Thanks

I cant speak for everyone but my Fibromyagia has lots of triggers to increase pain, Weather and fronts whether it be cold or rain always is a problem, This massive bloom of pollen is another.. Its like anytime something external is a problem like too cold, hot , pollen, sinues, any kind of cold or infections they all spell PAIN . Fibro is because our nervous sysytem is always running in high gear then add any of the above and it makes it just worse worse worse.... My normal pain level hangs around a 7 but im near a 8.5 and climbing.

And Stress does play a part.. Anyone that has any stress going on..... most everyone is having tense muscles, people tend to scrunch up there shoulders( where are your shoulder right now, raised up or relaxed down?) ,hands tend to make more of a fist , instead or lay open.. That Im not able to take a full deep breath, My rib cage is on fire.. That is the frosting on a shytcake than I am in for a hell of a round.

Its such a bone deep ache and fatigue that no amount of sleep will fix .. But it could be something worse, Thats the way I choose to look at it, I have to look at it that way.

I loved seeing the picks of your Hummingbirds I hope they return soon, I love just sitting and watching mine too
