Hello!
My name is Bryan and I hail from Dallas, Texas. I'm new to the area and I am working as a chemistry post-doc at a university. It's an awful job, but I get to do what I enjoy so I can't complain. I'm pretty healthy barring my fibro, a bit of ADHD, and some nerve damage.
Believe it or...
I am wondering if there is anyone out there who needs an ear to express their concerns and unexpressed feelings about their loved one's fibromyalgia symptoms. My lovely wife of 30+ years has been diagnosed for 10 years now. She is a very loving, generous woman who is becoming increasingly...

Hey, all,
My name is Willow. I've had a whirlwind of a year leading to a fibro diagnosis just a few weeks ago, and I'm still, er, processing. I also suffer from anxiety, depression, PTSD, and PCOS, and it's really overwhelming to have another chronic condition added to the list.
Before this...
I'm a new member, probably one of the few male members.
I am not new to fibromyalgia, however. I have had this condition for many years - decades.
I was initially diagnosed in 1991, when many more doctors than now dismissed overall body pain. Fibromyalgia had only recently been given it's...
