Hi there!
I'm 41 years old and have lived with Fibromyalgia for 8 years. Does it deserve a captial F?
I feel a bit shamed for not joining a forum until today. If I'd have listened to Mom, I would have joined years ago. I came for a commonality, as well as different aspects, advice and to...

Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum but I am not new to fibro. I was diagnosed with fibro in 2007. I was 21 and had just had my second child. I am happy to report that I am doing much better these days and only occasionally deal with the major flare ups that I used to, but I will never count...
Hello everyone,

I've already been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, after which I promptly pissed off my Rheumatologist by saying I thought nobody believed that to be a legitimate diagnosis. He said, "Well, I do."
I've always had bad luck with doctors. They always say I have an unusual case. Nothing is ever easy...

Hello, I am Ambrosia, and I suffered from chronic pain for nearly 22 years before I found a person who could treat my condition. I was abused as a child and sustained compounded injuries in my spine from being beaten on a daily basis. I developed excruciating back pain at a young age, which led...

Hello from California :-)
I've had chronic fatigue for close to 30 years, then was diagnosed with fibro more recently. They are similar and just seemed to morph.
I believe it kicked off when I had a horrific food poisoning episode that wrecked my gut for a good year, then while that was...
I am home from work again. Today it's a colitis flare-up, fatigue and headache. I had put in my name on a job that sounded like it would be kind of fun and would be at a new agency. I think I'm ready to leave. Some other circumstances have made it very painful for me to work there. I am a...

I know different things work for different people but I'm interested to see what kind of answers this will receive! My girlfriend has fibromyalgia and is always a battle to see what will help more - I am always on the lookout for something that will make her feel better and she has really...
I don't have a diagnosis yet but from searching dr Google I would say I have fibromyalgia. Blood tests have ruled out some things and I'm now waiting to see a neurologist. I have the usual symptoms which came on quite suddenly for me after the stress and over-physical activity of a house move...
