I am disabled without having the extra Fibro diagnoses on top & the stretching exercises though beneficial would have me on the floor if I even attempted them, can you therefore also do some exercises suitable for people like me or that are in wheelchairs etc… as I’m sure this would help all Fibro sufferers
I don’t know if you can access the NHS website but if you look under fitness and then yoga and Pilates they have a selection of exercises to suit your needs
Except for exercises 2 and 3 these are not an option. I’m 70 years old and have had fibromyalgia for 31 years. I’m also diabetic . My back is one of my major issues and especially in the last few years has progressed so that even walking is a huge issue. I used to walk my dogs and several foster dogs twice a day. I no longer foster as I have moved into an apartment and had to rehome my own dog. I was not able to walk them anymore, it wasn’t fair for them. I miss walking and hope to us some of the equipment in the gym in my apartment block. Those exercises you showed would just. Ever happen.
I’ve tried all of these but I’m always hurting.I also have Osteoporosis and I have an artificial hip replacement. I’ve gone to PT 3X and I just feel more pain.
I agree with all of the other people who have spoken about the various stretching exercises that they have been trying to continue for years to see if it will help their fibromyalgia pain issues. I have taken PT for at least 15-20years, participated in several sessions of warm water aqua aerobics,followed through with my home health exercises, walked my dog and was even an OTR/L as a professional therefore;knowing the importance of exercise and using my knowledge of UE exercises but I can’t stop the pain or advancement of the fibromyalgia which I find terribly frustrating and depressing.
Jeanne F. You sound like a fighter and I don’t know how old you are but don’t give up. I’m 70 and I think I’m just waiting to die. I used to be active but now I feel less pain laying in bed or sitting with the puppies. I have Fibro all over and a bad back and I just need to get involved with my craft room again. Anything to get my mind off my pain . Good luck andprayers for everyone.
I am also 70 yrs. old and am waiting to die because life is too much pain.
I’m in a flare now since my jaws are in great pain . Humid summer heat is hard to bear. I am praying for all that suffer from fibromyalgia that we will be given comfort and strength to bear up under the pain.
