    My Story

    We all have a story. Some lucky people have one big one, others have more. Some have them at the young age of six, others in their 60. My story happened when I was seventeen, young, teenage, vulnerable, and desperately in love with a sexy guy who has the most beautiful eyes. My story is about...

    feel bruised all over, fibro?

    From the beginning I didn't have "classic" fibro symptoms, and when I was diagnosed I asked my rheumatologist if I should expect symptoms to get worse, she said anticipate that they will change. Originally I was having sharp shooting pains throughout my body, first an arm, then a leg, then my...

    Diagnosed over five years ago

    Howdy. Tried literally everything that was ever claimed to help fibro when I had insurance, nothing helps at all except for opiates. Was on 100 mg tramadol 3x a day and Prozac, to get pain down to 3 or 4. New doctor will only prescribe 50 mg tramadol 3x a day and won't prescribe an...

    scared to death of being scared to death

    I have been going through something weird lately. I don't know why, but I am scared to death of everything. I am afraid to walk outside. Sometimes I am scared to death when in a car.

    My story. Could this be fibromyalgia?

    I am a 24 year old mother of one. My health has recently gone from fair to poor in the past few years. Two years ago I joined an accelerated (and very expensive) RN program. I enjoyed it and couldn't wait to graduate but about 7 months prior to graduation I started having severe digestion...

    Odd pain in throat muscle and jaw/left side

    Hi, I had this pain 3 years ago. It was a mystery to me. I even started googling symptoms and actually believed I had throat cancer. It was a strange pain. It wasn't like a sore throat, it was more like the throat itself hurt, also, upper esophagus, and jaw...all on the left side. I finally...

    Is anyone like me?

    Hi I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia for a few years now, and have it pretty under control with the use of 60mg Cymbalta. I was told by a nurse friend that she read that your thyroid might have something to do with Fibro so I went to get it checked. Came back normal, but my iron levels...

    Hello everyone- I was finally diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 2 years ago after 7 years of varying symptoms and a lot of "take this pill and call me in the morning" trial and error stuff-- I am hypothyroid so they thought that was the cause of my symptoms, and I also have arthritis and they thought...

    It can become exhausting or it can be rewarding when you try different things.

    I have found out the hard way and so has the people who I care for that it is exhausting on the mind as well as the wallet when you hear that a supplement can possibly help and you go out and buy it then use it for some time and it yields no results. I think back to a phrase my uncle used to say...
