What's in your Fibro 'to go' bag?

Do any of you carry a “to go” bag with aids for Fibro? What’s inside? And what things do you use for those that suffer from heat intolerance?? Thanks 😊😊😊🤗

I keep with me a pen and notebook for my trigger notes (a flare journal, to look for patterns in what foods, activities, and whatnot caused my symptoms to get worse) it helps and they change, water and caffeine are a must for me, something funny somewhere, I'm either toooooo hot or toooooo cold so I'm not much help with that one, I do a CBD pain cream and essential oils and a spoon to remind myself I only have a certain number a day to use and to be patient with myself.

haha yup definitely always take a personal fan and sweater with me for those too hot and too cold moments… I also got some touch screen sensitive compression gloves for the pain and for when my hands become icicles. I always carry anti nausea meds and have to have water on me at all times. wearing a spoon as a reminder is such a great idea! I might have to try that out…
