    Two weeks after diagnosis.

    I was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago. Having done some research, I realize I've probably had this for several years. Now in my mid fifties, I've finally gotten to where I need some support with this. Fortunately, my doctor is on board. I look forward to "meeting" you all & interacting. Hsmommy

    Nicotinamide riboside you make me feel so young

    Just found this interesting article regarding research done with Nicotinamide riboside. While I have not found any medical papers regarding use for fibromyalgia directly, I did find a recent one describing it as an effective treatment for mitochondrial myopathies. If you are seeing a...

    Diagnosed today

    I expected it, so I wasn't exactly shocked, but my doctor officially diagnosed me with fibromyalgia today. Part of me is so relieved because I finally have an answer... I've been struggling for so long, and I just thought I was too sensitive, too out of shape, too lazy, etc. When really, the...

    Doctor Recommendations

    Hi, I don't know where to start looking for a doctor who can diagnose and treat FMS. My husband wants me to get a second opinion. We live in the Beaumont/Houston, Texas area. Could anyone recommend someone?? Thanks.

    Neurologist?

    I'm woundering if any of y'all that have been to neurologist have been tested for "small fiber neuropathy"? I was never prescribed a "neurologist" and just read an article that sounds promising. (But don't they all!?). I insisted on a Brain MRI last summer so and had just asked my doctor for...

    Am I a Terrible Person?

    So - goes without being said that I've had a lot of procedures, both under anesthesia and awake. They are not fun and I don't wish them on anyone... The thing is - my sister is having a "female" procedure done, of course it's scary, of course no one wants to be in that scenario, but the DRAMA...

    Sun Sensitivity?

    A few weeks ago, on Easter Sunday, we spent a few hours outside at the park with our grandbabies while they had an egg hunt. Later that evening, I noticed that my face was itching frequently and when I looked in the mirror I noticed some hives on my face and neck. I took some Benadryl and by...

    Medication for migraines

    I've noticed a lot of people stuggling with migraines/cluster headaches. I struggled for YEARS before a doctor tried me on topiramate. It took some adjusting, but I've gone three years (with exception of times in the mold house) with little trouble, where I used to hide in a dark, quiet closet...
