Wait, fibromyalgia does that?

Wait, fibromyalgia does that?

Several years ago I was talking to 1 of my best friends who is a toiling therapist & mental health practitioner… She happened to casually mention that 1 of her customers was suffering from a made up disease known as fibromyalgia.

At the time, I had briefly heard people mention this medical condition before but I had particularly no plan what it meant.

From the sound of my best friend’s tone, it was clear that fibromyalgia was not an actual condition to worry about. Until… 10 years later I found out that I particularly have fibromyalgia! How? By realizing for the first time that my imbalanced temperature control plan was a symptom of the unwanted disorder. For as long as I can remember, I have had an drastically tumultuous experience with temperature control. As in, my body is consistently at an uncomfortable temperature & I realized particularly heavily on Indoor air temperature control systems to manage my own comfort level. If it is hot out I am drastically hot. If it is freezing out I am cold beyond belief. If there is a draft in the room I cannot concentrate on anything besides the unpleasant feeling of extravagant treated indoor air passing over my skin. And I never noticed that this was an abnormal temperature control problem.That is, until somebody mentioned fibromyalgia being accompanied by a big set of temperature regulation problems. Apparently, your body is unable to properly regulate its normal process used to maintain a steady temperature for yourself. Now, thanks to the diagnosis, I finally understand my hot & freezing changes… And my drastically high energy costs.
