I know we all want a solution to our A/P issues and I found something that really helps me. My wife made these little pillow looking things with rice in them. They go in the microwave to heat them up. When I feel a spell coming on, I heat it up and put it behind my neck. I then relax my shoulders and imagine the anxiety rolling off my shoulders. Sounds silly but I have successfully curbed off 2 attacks doing this. Give it a try, I hope it helps!
Also, do any of you feel extremely hungry when you comeback to normal???

What a thoughtful wife! I was thinking of buying something like that. I'm going to look for one now. Glad you found something to fight off the attacks!

Missgigi, please give it a shot. Its amazing to me how well it works. I've tried every stand on your head with a feather between your toes remedy and this works! Let me know. I hope it helps all of us!

Thanks for the suggestion! I too have a lot of pain in my shoulders and neck. I usually end up with a heating pad when I get home. This would be great for the office!

I also make these! If you need one quickly, you can use a sock, fill it with rice and sew shut. I actually have a microwave in my room so I can reheat in middle of night. (I have fibro too, and the heat helps)
