Rest isn’t restorative when we spend it ruminating on everything we’re not doing and beating ourselves up for it. Practicing rest means giving ourselves permission to pause, without judgment, and without the fear that we’re falling behind. XO, Dr. Jen

Stop gaslighting yourself into the narrative you’re lazy when you’re really burnt-out and exhausted AF from faking being well. XO, Dr. Jen

If you look close you'll see my #InvisibleIllness is not invisible...you'll see how much it has changed my life, you'll get a glimpse of the medications I have to take to keep functioning and every so often you'll see it bubble to the surface when I cannot control my symptoms

“#ChronicPain patients never escape this… It’s hard to get up in the morning. Pain makes it hard to fall asleep or get restorative sleep. Chronic pain sucks up your energy and ability to perform even the simplest of tasks—no aspect of life is unaffected.” https://t.co/LLeeb498bI

Fibromyalgia is no longer viewed as a dysfunction that solely resides in the central nervous system. Instead, the processes in your tissues collude with the control centers in your brain & spinal cord... American Fibromyalgia Syndrome Association

Fibromyalgia and IBS can go hand and hand.

If you suffer from IBS, it means your intestine is not functioning correctly. The actual structure is fine, but the condition is caused by intestinal stretching or disordered muscle movement which causes intense pain.

It can be debilitating and can impose a lot of restrictions not only on your diet but your lifestyle as well.

Symptoms of IBS include:

• Constipation
• Diarrhea
• Bloody Stool
• Nausea and vomiting
• Gas
• Bloating
• Abdominal distention
• Anemia
• Abdominal pain and cramping that wakes you up or keeps you awake
• Unintentional significant weight loss

IBS is diagnosed by identifying pattens in the above signs and symptoms and your doctor may do some other tests to rule out things such as:

• Ulcerative Colitis
• Crohn’s Disease
• Colon Cancer
• Food sensitivities

Although IBS is a chronic condition there are a lot of treatments available to help you manage the symptoms and make you feel so much better, they include:

• Prescription diarrhea medications
• Prescription constipation medication
• Over the counter medication
• Dietary changes
• Stress management techniques

IBS can be extremely difficult to live with but with medication and lifestyle changes can provide some help.

We try so hard to get through our days while others can do things with ease.

We still make it through even if it takes us longer. We do things at our own pace and that’s ok.

We are the gladiators of our world fighting a life long battle. And we may get knocked down by the pain, fatigue, fibromyalgia fog and all the other symptoms that fibromyalgia brings, but what makes us warriors is we always get back up.
