Welcome to the forum bluedevils. Fibro can be very frustrating and hard to understand sometimes. Fibro flares can be unpredictable. We all understand the frustration and are here to help one another.
Living with fibro, I've learned to do what I can to help distract pain. Keep yourself busy with activities you enjoy. Take time to exercise daily...it helps with stress, builds muscle, gives you more energy, and it helps give you a better night's sleep.
Take time to relax...do deep breathing and meditation...it helps with the pain. Use heat to soothe aching mucles. Pace yourself :)
Take one day at a time and count your blessings, You will find you are stronger than you think.
Please take time to check out fibro 101 on the top of pg. 1....lots of good information for a fibromite.
I'm glad you have joined the family...post often with comments, questions or to vent...We Care!!!
Hugs, Robin
