One Step Closer
After blogging about my ice allergy, I once again searched the internet for more information to try to find a connection between it and fibromyalgia. I got a little more intense than usual and also searched for information on fibromyalgia and latex allergies.

“Ice Is Nice”
Remember Val Kilmer’s line in the movie “Real Genius”? That used to be my motto. Not anymore.
I’m allergic to ice. Weird, I know, but true.

Pilates - A Commitment to Living Well
At Pilates, yesterday, my instructor asked if I’d had any pain from our last workout. Silly me answered negatively, so she upped the workout. So I am sore today.
