I just wanted to say hi. It's 5:15 in the morning and I'm still awake. I've been crying because of pain number one and secondly my son calls me a hypochondriac and my other son is hateful and disrespectful to me. I was diagnosed a year and a half ago and I was so relieved that I could put a name...
Hey, decided to join a support group with the new year. I was spending too much time on the floor crying. Quick history of my life: I'm 20, was away at school but had to come home this November with an awful flare up. Haven't found a helpful dr, hate being stuck back at home, lost many friends...
hi there,
I am new to this and not sure if I was supposed to start a new thread? I was diagnosed with Fibro and CFS about 8 months ago. I have been off work for about the same amount of time and am feeling extremely stressed about it. I was working full time with the symptoms for the past 3...

Every time I call out of work I break down crying. It breaks my heart that 1, I cannot SAFELY do my job (as a home health nurse) due to fatigue and mental fog, 2, I cannot be reliable for families who depend on me, 3, I'm losing out of the rewards of caring for others, which is in and of itself...

I was diagnosed about 3 weeks ago, Dr prescribed Cymbalta (spelling?) and it seemed to give some relieve, but then my eyesight started to blur so prescribing doctor told me to stop taking. I had just had my post op for cataract surgery and tested 20/20 in both eyes so the blurry eyes was awful...
Hi everybody, I am new to this group. I am in so much pain right now because of a pulled shoulder muscle. I got a new job and this is probably what did it. I want to scream, to cry, to hit things with pillows but it hurts.
So my muscle relaxer wear off and finally I am not depressed anymore...
