I have recently been prescribed pregabalin for fybromyalgia & I am interested to know if anyone has taken this & what your experience has been. I'm very cautious about taking so many drugs at once. I take sumatriptan for migraines, citalopram for depression & anxiety & paracetamol for pain...
Hello everyone, Hope that everyone is OK and coping. I am recently diagnosed as having Fibromyalgia/Sjogren's syndrome/osteoarthritis ( in my hands mainly ). I am 58 years old and have been suffering for the past 20 years. At the age of 38, I began suffering muscle spasms, aches and pains and...

Hi everyone!
So I am expecting a diagnosis of fibro eventually. I have been tossed around all sorts of specialists and they just cant find anything. I recently changed my medi-cal (Medicaid) to a program called IEHP because medi-cal had no pain management offered and IEHP does, but and that's...
I am new here. I am sure at some point I will be given the Fibromyalgia diagnosis. I started becoming sick at age 30 when my daughter was around 4. I was a single parent from the beginning and life was great. I had a high paying job, we needed for nothing. She is my life. It kills me now that we...

The past 11 days have been awful.
I have trouble falling asleep so I've been taking melatonin pills. I keep waking up at night because I'm uncomfortable and achy and I wake up to feel like I've been beat up or hit by a car. It's extremely difficult to get out of bed and I've been crying every...

Hello Everyone,
I am new here and I'm hoping to get some feedback. I have recently been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and Osteoarthritis. I know for sure the Osteoarthritis was a accurate diagnose, but still in denial about the fibromyalgia. For starters I have joint pain and muscle aches...
As if I needed another issue to deal with, I finally went to have my memory tested because multiple people were noticing that I was forgetting things, not completing things, etc. Well, the text show that I am starting to have memory loss. I guess on a scale of 1-30, 25-30 is normal, 23-24 is...
I've always been an incredibly resilient person but this morning my therapist of 3 years suggested I think about seeing a psychiatrist and taking an antidepressant. I'm at a new "low" so to say.
I'm 31 y/o, started having the crazy weird unexplainable pains about 9 months ago, was diagnosed with...
Hi all,
Not sure when I did first come down with it, but think it was in my early 20's. (I am now 67 years young) Remember a time when I would have waves of pain go thru my body and lasted for couple of months. Wondering if I had some weird virus that caused the fibro. After that I started...
