I know no one but my doctor can diagnose me but I just want to see if anyone else has symptoms similar to mine. I don't have an appointment with my doctor until early february but I'm trying to get a sense of what is going on with me. I'm in my early thirties, I have one child who is almost...
5 years ago, I was healthy, or so I thought I was, then I had a stroke. From that point and time, everything in my life went into a downward spiral. Before all that I worked 2 jobs to keep me and my kids afloat...and then it seemed after all that I could barely get up out of the bed I was so...

Does anyone realize just how impossible it is to navigate day to day life with just one arm?
Since I broke my arm on Monday, there is very little that I can do for myself. I can't drive, I can't cook and I cannot even bathe. The most simple of tasks are nearly impossible when one arm is...
My FM diagnosis was nearly six years ago. Unfortunately, I also have 3 herniated discs and several associated problems with that. Plus I was diagnosed with celiac three years ago. :sad: However, I do not allow this to control me. Initially I did and life was more difficult than it needed to...
About six months ago, after taking a nice walk, my lower back suddenly went out for the very first time. I was in terrible pain, and nearly had to crawl home. And from that day on, it just seemed to happen more and more frequently, until I was finally at the point where the back pain was pretty...

So, here's my story, put as simply as I can manage: I am a 27 year old female with a ten year history...

After being treated for pain but never diagnosed with anything for nearly 2 years, I was completely frustrated. During this time I was also tested to see if I had early onset Alzheimer's (I don't) and have also been diagnosed with sleep apnea. Thought I was going crazy.
