    Is there any one else struggling with having fibro in their 20's?

    I am going crazy. I am only 20 years old and it is hard having fibro for many more reasons than just pain. I am never taken seriously when I say I am to exhausted to work even a 25 hour week.

    lost newbie here....I'm not alone?

    Hi folks, I've had fibro since 2005. Been through so many drugs it's not possible to list them all. Currently not taking any for Fibro. The last one was Gabapentin but it squeezed my brain on the dose that helped provide relief so a catch 22. I am not on any pain meds (doctors here refuse to...
