    Diagnosed, then sicker than ever with Cymbalta

    Two Thursdays ago I was finally diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. My walk-in clinic doctor diagnosed me. I originally went to her to get a referral to the rhumatologist (I say "the" because she's the only one where I live that's in my insurance's preferred network, and the other hospital has a very...

    Finding the right MD

    I'm pretty new around here, and have what might be a common question: How do I go about finding the most knowledgeable doctor to help me manage my Fibro? My G.P. - who diagnosed me 3 years ago, seems not to know what to do beyond throwing the "miracle meds" (like Lyrica or Cymbalta) at me...

    I've fallen and I can't get up.

    I’m 40 years old and I feel like my life is over. Was that all I had to offer? (Not that that’s a bad thing.) I have no where to go from here but down. This is soo heavy for me I have no choice but to put it all aside just so I can try and have a normal day. I don’t think it’s working...

    Anxiety medications

    Hi guys, I’m a little intolerant (ok, a lot) to traditional fibro meds, namely Cymbalta and Lyrica, but I did notice that while on Cymbalta, my mood seemed to be a little better. I’m a naturally anxious person, which is aggravated by my fibro, so I was wondering if any of you have taken...
