Hello again
Apologies for slightly less information this week. I have had limited internet access and relied
mainly on emails received rather than on internet searches. Nevertheless, there is stll plenty to keep
you occupied.

“Today, for some unknown
reason, I have been incredibly anxious and panicky. In fact, I have just taken
a Valium, hoping it might calm me down – and normally, I only ever take Valium
at night before bed.
So, it was a wonderful gift to receive the Very
Inspiring Blogger Award from Wings Like Eagles in
the Desert. I had never previously read this blog but, having had a look
around it today, I will definitely be adding it to my list of must-reads.”
Congratulations
Simone. And thank you for nominating FMS
eNews as one of your 15 other bloggers.

Chronic Pain Management: Talking to Your
Boss About Your Pain
You may have wondered what, if anything, you should say to your
employer about your condition. This is a
very complicated question. The answer depends on the nature of
your job, your relationship with your boss, whether revealing your condition
would put your employment at risk, and how much could be gained through a
discussion with your boss about your pain problem. Each situation is unique and no one can tell
you whether you will benefit from talking to your boss.
However, here are a few issues to consider if you are thinking about such a discussion. Read

Five ways to get more vitamin D through
natural sources
Monday, March 18, 2013 by:
PF Louis
The form of vitamin D that's credited to ridding the population of
rickets by "fortifying" processed milk and bread is D2. But lately,
the UK has been reporting a bit of an upsurge with rickets.
Furthermore, research over the past two decades shows that vitamin D is important for resisting many other minor health aliments, obesity, metabolic syndromes, and major diseases, even cancers and cardiovascular diseases.
For that level of health protection, vitamin D3 supplements are considered superior to D2 supplements. The consensus is that supplementing 5 to 10 thousand IUs (international units) daily should be safe.

Whether
you're planting a vegetable garden or designing a back yard garden landscaping
project, if you're not starting with seeds, it's important to buy healthy
nursery plants from the start.

Last week there was a new Pope. This week brought the installation of a new Archbishop of Canterbury - and a Budget that takes some deciphering. Next week will be Easter, and the north of the country is still snowbound. What a mixed bag! Whatever our religious beliefs, whatever our political persuasions, whatever the weather, we are united in our fight against fibro.

N.B. I would
like to point out to you that the information in my eNews blog is passed on to you mainly from other
sources. Links are given to the original
articles. I take no responsibility for
their accuracy but freely give them publicity if I think they might be of
interest to my readership. Sites I refer
you to are for information only.
They might conflict in their opinions, they might not even be medically sound,
but I merely offer them for you to peruse and make your own judgements, accept
or reject as you will. Only by reading widely can we get an overall
picture of fibromyalgia syndrome and how we can deal with its symptoms, learn to
cope with them and still have a life. Any
advice or recommendation of a medical or legal nature should always be
discussed with a qualified professional.
I
also include various awareness items, benefits issues, as well as general
health considerations. Anyone wishing
to reproduce any of the included items in printed form should seek permission
from the originators.
