Flare Up triggers

Posted , 4 users are following.

It has been a very long time since I've been on here. I was diagnosed back in 2016, after changing my diet to exclude dairy and started exercising at least 3-4 times a week I felt like my fibromyalgia was under control. Until I was in a bad car accident on February 7th I am now having flare ups that even my nortriptyline that I take cannot relieve. Is it possible that the car accident triggered my flare ups?

    Hi Rachel01351,

    Really sorry to hear what happened hope it does get better at some point. Yes I believe it may well have triggered your flare ups as it was a trauma to your system .
