    Need Support - Invalidating Doctor.

    House Chores, Pain and Dizziness

    I am new to this forum. I had to retire in 2011 due to CAD and pain. I have always been upbeat and positive, and I used to be able to keep up with the house chores, although I have never been obsessive compulsive. Between the brain fog and the pain that takes over, the morning is the WORST. I...

    fibro or drug addiction?

    I would like to know if anyone has ever gone through these things. My father has been different for years. After a confrontation with him a few weeks ago in front of my three young children, I noticed his eyes were glossy and he was slurring his speech more than usual. Our entire family has...

    Are these very early symptoms of Fibro?

    Hi. I have a major case of generalized anxiety disorder, restless leg syndrome, and moderate depression, if that matters. My doctor also says I have PTSD due to my witnessing at 5 yrs of age my mom taking a bottle of pills and saying she wanted to die because my father, whom she was married to...
