    Hello everyone. I am new to your forum. I hope to contribute as well as receive much needed support from this forum. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia way back in the early 80's. AT the time this term was not well known, in fact, even in the medical community many doctors used this term as a...

    First time visit

    Get upset a lot, fibro related?

    I find my self getting upset a lot. Over the littlest things sometimes. Could it be fibro related? I was diagnosed nearly 2 years ago, and i find that I don't really have anyone to talk to about it. People are sympathetic but they don't really get it. Any advice would be great. Thanks
