Re: Re: FMS & Lymph Node s, sensitivity

[Guest guest]

What I did to help somewhat with my light sensitivity...since I have to wear glasses and with the doctor's suggestion, I put the progressive lens in as well as purchased frames that came with the sunglass clips. This way I have double protection with that. When I'm at home or even out whether it's night or day, I have to wear my clips over my glasses. I always feel it's rude when I keep my sunglasses on while speaking to people so I just apologize and tell them that I have an issue with my eyes and they thank me for telling them and we carry on. This protection with my glasses also helps when I have my migraines. My eye doctor said he has suggested this to all his Fibro patients and I have to say, it does really help.

As a matter of fact when I went to see the disability atty for the first time while he was filling out his forms and asking questions, he asked..."you have light sensitivity don't you"? and I answered "yes" and he said his clients with Fibro almost always have their sunglasses on when they see him. So I guess it's very common. Hugs H.

Hi !

I can remember crying and asking the doctor and nurse,Well,if the lymph nodes are "Nothing",then why wont they go away or go back to normal size?? And there answer was always,I don't know?? It drove me,just about out of my mind!

I do have hypersensitivity. Touch,of course,but also to sound,light, smell,I've never noticed taste. I can remember the first time I had a severe sensitivity to light,it scared me so bad,I think it caused me to have a panic attack and I actually had to leave where I was at! Now,I just deal with it,if I can. And I'm not terrified of it now because I understand what is happening to me. Take care all,Pam.S
