    At What Age Did Your Simptoms Start?

    So, I've had problems since I was very, very young. My memory is shot completely, so I rely on my mom for most of the information, but I do have some memories of being traumatized from being told I'm "making it up to get attention". My doctor said it's very uncommon for someone to have...

    Hello, I am new here

    Why are we still in the dark?

    There are lots of theories out there about FMS/CFS. It's a thyroid problem, it's a digestive problem, candida, it's an autoimmune problem, etc. But not enough research is being done to get to the bottom of it. The reason for that is twofold, in my opinion. 1. Fibromialgia and chronic fatigue...

    22 and FMS --- Everyday is just getting worse

    Hello, thank you for reading my thread. I just don't know what else to do. I can talk to my family and friends about what I am going through, but no one really knows what I am going through. I was diagnosed with Fibro close to a year ago. Along with Fibro, I have Sjogrens Syndrome, Chronic...

    New in Colorado

    Diagnosed in 2011 and still trying to find relief. Am currently taking Lyrica and starting today adding Savella and Celebrex. Not too sure of these new meds. Oh, and I take Seroquel too but that just knocks me out for about 12-14 hours so I kind of tend to not want to take that unless it's a...
