Hello. I'm new here. I was just diagnosed with fibromyalgia this past Tuesday. I have been suffering since the beginning of March. 3/1/13-3/29/13 I tapered off Seroquel and Zoloft, which I was on for two years, Feb 2011, after the Renfrew Center forced me into taking it - refusing to treat me if...

Hi All, I just joined and am looking forward to "meeting" some of you. I enjoy interacting with others who have this disease to see what works for them, things to avoid, to offer and receive support as needed. I love the research and new information regarding fibro. I'm hoping this is a good...

I'm self-employed and after 30 years of problems, now that I am on Medicare and don't have to worry about pre-existing conditions, I am going to doctors to finally try to find what is wrong with me.
After being to a rheumatologist, endocrinologist and they pretty much say probably fibromyalgia...
