Hi everyone! My name is Ashley and I will be 30 next month (eeekk!)
2 years ago I dropped something on my big toe, the nail ripped off, got infect so I went to a podiatrist. The podiatrist gave me a prescription for 1000 MGs a day of cipro for 28 days.
A few months after being off the...
Hi Everyone,
This is my first post, and proofreading it I see I've been a bit long winded. Even so I hope some of you will read it and feel a connection. I'm looking forward myself to delving into this site for fellowship and ideas and help dealing with this disease.
I'm "SandySea" from...

Hello. I'm new here. I guess I'll start by saying I'm 30 but I feel 80 most of the time.
I've had pain for years but over the last year it got progressively worse.
My family and friends call me a hypochondriac because I always have something
Wrong. For years I fought with myself thinking its all...
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...
I'll start with a little about me, I was diagnosed in 2009 at 19 years old. I've been on pain management for 3 years which has me on vicodin (partially due to a back injury caused by a MVA) and Gabapentin. Both of these help but the side effects are killing my relationship. I have absolutely...
Since all the stupid weather and Christmas stress started the weekend before Christmas I have not been in a good way at all. I know i occasionally have flare-ups but this was the mother of them all and it still is with me.
I'm normally a very mild mannered person, yes things piss me off but i...
Hi,
I'm new here to the forum. I'm 30 now, was diagnosed in 2007, and until that time, I was in the best shape of my life. I worked 8 hours a day, then went to the gym for 1.5 hrs, and still had tons of energy to function.
When I got sick, I had no energy, was so exhausted that as soon as I...

Hello, I am new to the forum and have already learnt I am not alone in suffering from this horrible Fibro thing.
I have recently been diagnosed, started on medication and trying to come to terms with constant aches, pains, headaches and generally feeling pretty much totally exhausted.
My G.P...
I am wondering if anyone has some advice on trying to help with eye pain related to light sensitivity. I suffer from pain all over but the pain in my eyes is what is the major reason I am unable to work. I can only go for a period of about 15-20 minutes of looking at my computer screen without...
