    So much in common

    I have read so many threads and can relate to so much. It is apparent that we all have so much in common yet our experiences can be so personal. It is great to have such a forum, if not to seek out help but to know that we are not alone in our daily struggles. I wish everyone could have a...

    Are Fibro Clinics Worthwhile or Scammers?

    Tomorrow, I'm going to a clinic that specializes in working with fibro patients. Staff includes a medical doctor, functional medicine doctor, nutritionist, physical therapists, and massage therapists. Been open since 2006. Has anyone gone to one of these clinics and if so, what was your...

    Magnesium?

    I've read many articles correlating magnsium deficiency and fibromyalgia symptoms. For example, Mayo Clinic did a clinical trial of a topical Magnesium solution. They claim to have positive results. Anyone here who has tried Magnesium supplements? Do you feel they're helping? Thank you!

    Possibly Fibromyalgia, Anxiety, or something else?

    Hello, all: I've been dealing with a tingling (and occasionally burning) sensation on the left side of my body. It started almost two weeks ago when I had what I believe was a panic attack while driving home from work. I had to pull over into a parking lot and call a friend to come get me. My...

    First Pain Clinic Visit(need advice)

    I was diagnosed with fibro in February 2015. I was also diagnosed with severe anxiety and a couple other things. I currently take Cymbalta 90mg, Flexeril 10mg, Mobic 15mg, and Ambian 10mg. Ambian does not in any way help me sleep. My panic attacks and constant body pain keep me awake no matter...

    GABA Deficient Anxiety

    Since the clinic wants to prescribe me a medication that is normally for depression and anxiety, I though it best to research some supplements as alternatives. So without posting a link, if you do a search for "Balancing Brain Chemistry with Peter Smith" you will come to his website. He cuts...

    Cat Scan anyone?

    I had a cat scan w/contrast done a couple of months ago. For 2 weeks afterwards everything was worse...pain, fatigue, brain fog; I'm still a little worse than before the procedure. I even got the onset of new pain (like I needed that) in my hips. The hair has basically slowed down to almost a...

    They know so little about us

    Thinking back to the current clinic I attended, and the one previously, they barely asked any information beyond the usual drug allergies, chronic conditions, smoking/drinking habits, etc. Their medical history questionnaires didn't ask about any physical routines, food allergies or...
