I have struggled with fibromyalgia since 2008.
Currently taking Cymbalta which seems like the miracle medicine for me .
I'm from Vermont and have decided that I'm sure there must be 1 good Doctor here, but so far haven't had success finding one.
Fortunately I have a supportive Partner who is...
Hello everyone. I'm new here. I was diagnosed a few years back and have tried several different medicines, none of which have really done much for me. Now I do realize there isn't a cure-all drug out there, but just wondering what you all take and how you feel it helps with your day to day life...
went to pain doctor yesterday. when asked how I was, I mentioned that I am frustrated and discouraged because nothing seems to get any better.
His response was to tell me that the only way that it can get better is if I engage in strong physical exercise, wherein my heart rate is constantly...
I find this quite interesting. I do have all 3 and more and went true lots of tests and it took more than one doctors or hospital before it leaded to the last doctor of mine who used all the other reports combined with his own round of tests. Needless to say I was confused and not very happy...
Not long ago my partner said so many unkind things and dumped me blaming fibro and how its affected me as mine has been really severe for a long time now and so clearly affects his life too....but rejection and brutal words on top of being so poorly has had devastating consequences mentally and...
Hi all I am new here. I am 23 years old and have lived with pain and exhaustion for as long as I can remember I suppose it became more noticeable in my late teens. I am currently in the process of being diagnosed with fibromyalgia and potentially endometriosis. As well as this I am also...

Hi,
I'm curious - is anyone here able to successfully manage your symptoms with a minimum of medication? If so, how do you do it? Do you work full-time (either in or outside the home)?
I work full-time in a fairly sedentary job 37.5 hrs per week, and take a lot of medication in order to do...
Hello, everyone!! Well, so here I am. After going through all the stages of "grief", I'm finally at the acceptance stage: I have fibro, and ignoring it for several years hasn't worked to dispel it.
Long story short: our doctor diagnosed me several years ago, but I've always "carried on" like I...
Of course it's not that I want to live drug free with fibromyalgia, but I'm broke and now homeless too lol what can I say , gotta stay optimistic somehow right? :wink:
