    Tender Muscles abnd Shooting Pain

    I know there is a trigger point on the inside sides of your knees. For the past couple days, the whole length of the inside of my thigh has gotten increasingly more painful.

    When is it okay to take narcotics?

    I am fighting with this. People say you're in pain for a reason and you are just masking it but with Fibro that pain is a miscommunication with the brain so it is telling you something is wrong with your hip when your hip hurts but there is nothing wrong with it. Mine hurts all the time and...

    Environmental Factors

    Initially my family doctor thought the numbness in my face, lips and tongue, the burning sensations on my arms and legs, nausea, tremors, muscle weakness, joint pain, fatigue etc may be Fibromyalgia due to lack of any evidence in blood work of other causative factors.

    Genetics Involved?

    Thought I would see if any others on this forum have other family members with Fibro. Both of my sisters have fibro along with 2 of my nieces. I also think my dad may have had it as he really suffered from a lot of pain, but way back then (as I am 67 yrs old) 40 some years ago, fibro was...

    new depression

    I've always been an incredibly resilient person but this morning my therapist of 3 years suggested I think about seeing a psychiatrist and taking an antidepressant. I'm at a new "low" so to say. I'm 31 y/o, started having the crazy weird unexplainable pains about 9 months ago, was diagnosed with...

    Intro to me!

    Hello-I'm new to this forum. I discovered it while researching fibro and medical marijuana. In December of 2012, I was admitted to the hospital with acute colitis. After I was discharged, I just could not recover. I felt like I had the flu and could not walk across my house. My GP assured me...
