Hi everybody! I'm new to the forum so hello everyone :)
I am 27 and I was just a few months ago diagnosed with fibro. I am finding my feet and it is all a bit overwhelming. Trying to take each day as it comes.

Hi,
It could be fibro, it could be an injury, an infection or a very bad flare, but I am sure we all find ourselves in excruciating pain once in a while.

Hi, is there anybody here who has managed to maintain a professional career after developing fibro? Is it even possible?
I've been diagnosed just about a year ago but have been living with it longer. Before the diagnosis I used to make up for the bad days but putting more hours, spending...
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.
