    Shocked, frustrated, depressed.....

    My doctor suggested a couple of years ago I might have FM, but I really didn't think so, but I was wrong. I believe after reading about this horrible condition I have had symptoms for about 8 years. Over the last three years I've been dealing with an infection filled abscess which tunnel and...

    Vitamin D Experiment

    I've heard a lot lately about Vitamin D helping at least some of those who have Fibromyalgia, so I'm embarking on an experiment. I can't afford costly lab work to test my pre-experiment Vitamin D level, but I'm pretty sure it's low to non-existent. I've taken it in the past and it has seemed to...

    ionic footbaths

    Does anyone know if ionic foot baths work? It is supposed to help remove toxins from the body and in reviews for a home kit some with FM say it gave them more energy. I don't know anyone who has ever had one done, much less have a home unit.

    How do you "deal" with people in your life who doesn't believe in fibro?

    so i had a doctor say that she didn't believe in fibromyalgia before and it was clear to me what to do - not to ever see her again. but i never had a friend say that. and it was only after i point blank asked her about it because i had a nagging feeling she didn't like talking about my illness...

    NEW HERE!! Question!

    Hi everyone! I've had fibromyalgia for at least 18 years. Probably longer. But lately when I wake up I feel so achy and chilled like I have a very bad flu. I also get very red cheeks like I'm running a high fever. I am single and have to work and it's getting so extremely difficult. It's like...

    Apparently it never gets better. You just learn to deal with it.

    I don't even know where to start. The pain is life (as I knew it) ending. The process of elimination is all consuming. The explanation to everyone you care about is like explaining the Big Bang to Evangelists. The medication is never ending, more pills, higher doses, weider effects and changes...

    It's not all about the pain

    Firstly let me say thankyou for providing such a supportive and informative site. This is the best one I have found so far. My journey with Fibro has been a bit of an unusual one. Having 2 bouts of Ross River Virus left me with CFS which I had thought to have managed reasonably well. However...
