    Taking back control- a new plan for managing my fibro

    :-PI've been struggling for quite some time with the meds I am taking for fibromyalgia, major depressive and anxiety disorders. Either I'm getting worse or everything is not working as well. So, I had to make a choice to keep increasing Cymbalta and Tramadol and adding more meds or find a new...

    Referred to Rheumatologist

    At first my doctor thought I had anxiety, but a few months went by and the pain/aching has set in. He did a tender point test and some places didn't bother me but he barely pressed down. Other spots felt like sore/tender muscles. He did bloodwork, testing for a long list of things and it all...

    Might lose my job because of FMS

    Hi everybody, It's been a while since I posted here. I think I was trying to live as normally as possible knowing that I had Fibro. I was diagnosed in October 2014 and gave my diagnosis letter to my boss who was fully understanding as she had a family member with fibro but her case was worse...

    Recently diagnosed FM, new to the forum, have a few questions

    Hi everyone! I'm new here, and only very recently diagnosed with FM (and a few other things), two days ago. I've been in and out of hospitals and medical centres for the last 18 months, and despite finally having a diagnosis, I'm still having multiple scans and tests. I've been having issues...

    Losing my mind

    All day, all I want to do is sleep. All night, I have no interest in sleeping because I don't want to have to get up in the morning. Could this be because no matter how long I lay in bed and sleep, I never feel better? I try to rest a lot on the weekends, but week days are full of time limits...

    Diagnosed 3 years ago but still lost!

    I was diagnosed by a pretty crummy rheumatologist who basically went off of some blood tests taken by my GP and then felt my joints (which always hurt) and said that I had Fibro. I had no idea what that was and she didnt tell me. I stopped seeing her because she didnt listen to me and didnt seem...

    I'm in denial

    I've done quite a bit of research on fibro because I suspect my husband may have it, although the VA hasn't given him a diagnosis, he does have an rx for Lyrica and Cymbalta. But that's another can of worms. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety in college, hypothyroidism when I was 22...
