Saying Goodbye to Fibromyalgia

Posted by: Freda on: February 10, 2011

   I’ve struggled for years in one area of my life. Exercise has been extremely painful because of fibromyalgia. I could only do about a half hour of mild exercise a day and then I was limited the rest of the day to barely moving. If I attempted to do more, I suffered quite a bit and could even be unable to do much for several days. On moving days for example, when I tried to complete last minute packing, move boxes, unpack and do some cleaning, inevitably I would be in tremendous pain for days and unable to move. Muscle relaxing medication was my good friend; without it I could do nothing. About two months ago, a dear friend prayed over me, seeking God for healing of my body. From that evening, the fibromyalgia was gone. My muscles had been so atrophied that building them up has been the beginning of a new way of life. I started going to a water aerobics class at a local health club. I attended one of these classes years ago and wound up down in bed for a week. I started slow, with only 1 class a week, then two – adding each as my muscles gained some tone. Now I am going three days a week, with no pain! My muscles are still building in tone and I sure feel better! I do get worn out a bit, but with care, I will be able to do more as time goes. I feel better physically than I have since my childhood! It is truly a miracle for me to be able to move without pain.
