Hi all, it's me again with another question. Sorry, sometimes I feel like I'm talking to myself on here! ?

In the past month I've totally lost my appetite. When I even look or smell food it just makes me nauseous, let alone the taste. Now there are only a few foods tha that I can force down without feeling like I'm going to throw up. My doctor gave me an anti-nausea medicine but it doesn't seem to be helping... I've started losing a lot of weight because of it and I'm worried that it's going to cause problems. I've been taking a multivitamin to try to make sure that I get some sort of nutrients in my body but I don't know if it's enough.

Has anyone else had this problem? I don't know if it's the medicines or the fibromyalgia itself doing this? Is there any way to make it stop?

Hello @CharlieE‍, thank you for opening this discussion. I'm sorry to hear about the nausea, that must be really hard to deal with! Let me tag some other members who can possibly share with you. emoticon cute

Hello everyone, how are you today? Have any of you noticed that your fibromyalgia affects your appetite? Have you ever experienced nausea? What do you think is behind it - the fibro or the medications you may be taking? How did or do you manage it?

@HelloKitty I started taking kratom when I was diagnosed with cervical dystonia, it means I have constant pulling of my neck and shoulder muscles. Botox is the primary treatment , 6 to 8 shots targeting muscles but its hit and miss. I told a friend about this and he told me about kratom, so I went to a kratom shop and talked to the owner. He learned I was an Army Veteran and sold me some capsules. Unbelievable the kratom knocked out the pain and relieved some of the spasms and pulling that was 5 years ago, and I am still taking it for chronic pain. I have found the vendors to trust and a fbook website to share experiences with others. Like all things kratom must be handled with common sense, and reading info on the web helps educate us all. IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT HELPS WITH MY CHRONIC PAIN

Yes I agree. Im on morphine and Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen and yours as well. I have some others also. If I want to work in the back yard, I am sleep mode if I set down. The next morning and at night is paying with great pain. Its a hard road in many ways. We have to keep going best as we can. Have a smile and good day to you. I have the stimulator too.
