I'm right there with ya! Do you take anything to help you sleep? Sometimes a small dose of ?? can help you get to sleep so you can feel better rested. It helps me.
I avoid caffeine, and white flour products. Whole grains help. Eating small portions of protein throughout the day also helps with fibro fog.
Hope your doc will listen to you. Keep speaking up. Maybe make a list of questions/concerns too.
Best to you!! Here we come quilting! :)

Just wanted to let you know I use Lyrica for my pain. If I go without it my family will ask"Are you taking your Lyrica",this helps me more than anything. Have you tried it? If not,please do I recommend this to everyone. Kinda expensive,but they will help with cost,with most situations.

Had another great sew day today. I worked on this last week and finished piecing it today. The borders are a little wavy but I'm sure I can quilt that out.
Tomorrow I'm going back over there for another sew day!! WOW two days in one week. I'm so excited.
Oh..and the fabric is Moda's Martinique.

I absolutely LOVE that fabric. I should because I have bought a lot of it. My quilt top is finished and everything bought to finish the quilt. Now I just have to get up the nerve to finish my first larger size quilt.

One thing that has helped me more then any meds was changing my diet. It took a while but I am nitrate and processed food free. No artificial anything. No lite or diet foods. Just whole food, diary, fruit, and lean meats. No sodas, Crystal Clear, or KoolAid, no jello, packaged puddings, deli meats, or frozen meals.
