...it becomes difficult to talk about how awful you really feel because people either think you're imagining your pain or symptoms, or they don't wanna hear about it any more, or even worse, they tell you how they have pain too, and how basically, everyone has pain. That they don't believe in...
Have been recently diagnosed with hasimotos thyroiditus which is very similar to fibromyalgia or some doctors say it's the same thing. I am just so tormented. I kept nearly passing out and could lie for days or up to a week on the couch feeling totally wasted. Actually it felt like I was dying...
Hello, I'm obviously new here and a little lost but not as lost as I was. I've been dealing with intense chronic pain since July last year. I've been through x-rays, CTs and MRIs over my back and head to rule out disc problems, fractures, tumors, and MS. I've had a nerve and muscle study done...
Hello everyone,
I just found this forum while searching the internet for support.
I am a 25-year-old female who has been struggling with physical issues for around 5 years. I desperately want support and answers. I feel like people think because I am young and "look healthy" that there is no...
Hi, This is my first time doing this and I hope it gives my family and friends a break from me.
When I was diagnosed (about 4 years ago) I really didn't believe I had it. The only thing I knew about it was the commercials on TV for the drugs. I had a gall bladder attack and the doctors did...

I am new to this forum. I had to retire in 2011 due to CAD and pain. I have always been upbeat and positive, and I used to be able to keep up with the house chores, although I have never been obsessive compulsive. Between the brain fog and the pain that takes over, the morning is the WORST.
I...

This is my 6th year living in constant pain. It gets harder every day for me, I feel my fibro getting worse.. and I'm not sure how to handle it anymore.
I've tried many different medications with no luck and so many alternatives and nothing helps. Being in chronic pain has changed me and I...
I have not been well for years wondering how I could possibly have so many things wrong with me and not be dying or have a diagnosis. And I am known to have a high pain tolerance as it is. My family Dr has pre-diagnosed me but I am still waiting on a waiting list here in Winnipeg MR to get in to...
After doing some research today, I think I may have fibromyalgia. I had thought it was just a pain disorder 'till I overheard something on Dr. Oz about chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. I've been diagnosed with Major Depression Recurrent, Insomnia, Panic Disorder, and Generalized Anxiety...
