Can you work with fibromyalgia

Answer 1

Not likely, I'm afraid. Fibromyalgia is a chronic neuroimmune disease and its most common symptoms are a severe amount of pain that doesn't respond well to most analgesics, and exhaustion which limits concentration. So the person with fibromyalgia couldn't do an active job because too much physical exercise makes the pain and exhaustion worse. And a desk job probably wouldn't be suitable either, because of the brain fog and trouble concentrating. There is a lot more to fibromyalgia than pain and brainfog, but those are the symptoms that interfere with normal life the most.

Answer 2

Yes, some people can go to school with Fibromyalgia. However, others may find that they can not handle the stress. If you do choose to go to school while dealing with Fibromyalgia it is important that you pace yourself.

Answer 3

Every patient with Fibromyalgia is different. Some find that they can continue to work their regular jobs, while others find that they can not. It is important to pace yourself in order to keep up with as much as possible. Focus on the most important things in your life.
