Hello everyone,
I haven't been officially diagnosed yet and quite frankly I'm hoping like heck that I don't have Fibro but it seems as if I pretty much have every symptom but 2 (as well as the allodnia, although I did panic a bit when I had 2 mesquito bites and the next day they felt as if...

For the last few years I've had ongoing hip and leg pain following a car accident and numerous tests have shown no answers, leading to...

I'm sorry I know this is not the "vent" section, but just looking at that in writing makes my angry. My entire life I have used every bit of energy and every second I am off my back trying to make enough money to pay bills. Now I'm crying. I hate the fact that I have been broke and alone my...

Hello. I'm new here and this is my first post. I'm so glad to have found this site after a couple of years of battling this on my own. My journey has been long and hard. Doctors used to think I was imagining the symptoms and called me a hypochondriac for years. Finally I found a specialist who...
Hi I'm not sure how to start but I need to find out answers to questions I have about fibromyalgia. Here is some backround information about my wife and I. We are both in in our early 30s and we are highschool sweethearts. We have been together for 14 years, married for 8 of the 14 (no breaks or...

My dad made me go see doctor for a second opinion on my fibro diagnosis because he didn't belive that I had fibro, but his doctor also diagnosed me.
I've become dependant on my dad and live at his house (very long story short, it was my grandpa's house and i was living here to take care him...
