Tips for Managing Fibromyalgia Flares While Traveling

Hi! I worked offshore for 12 years and now work onshore but travel a lot. I find asking for specific things in hotel rooms or bringing my own pillow helps a lot, I try not to change my routine a lot when I'm away, like still shower/bathe at the same kinda times, make sure I've got enough of my medications with me and a little extra in case of a bad flare. I keep healthy snacks in my work van with plenty of water in case I'm far away from civilization. I bring a hot water bottle with me and fill it with the little hotel kettles you get, or ask a member of staff to assist. I bring comfortable clothing, my slippers and joggers for in an evening, my dressing gown to keep warm or shorts if it's too warm.

I don't travel a lot, but I do take instant cold packs for when I leave the house. Maybe this could help? Idk if it helps my fibro or just some of my other stuff.

Following this because I would also like tips please 😅
