Today has started off in the worst possible way. I woke up and tried to get out of bed and fell to floor in awful pain. I have been honest about how I do not have a lot of bad days because, I choose not to call them bad no matter how bad the pain is. Well, I had lots to do today and, this was...
Hi, I'm new here, but not new to fibromyalgia. I was first diagnosed in 2003. Things were relatively stable for a long time, with good days and bad days.
In the last couple of years, though, my symptoms are much worse. I don't have anything close to one of my old "good days" any more. The best...
It has been such a long road for me. I first got diagnosed with fibro in September, 2011. I had all the classical symptoms of fibro. I have been getting treated for fibro since that time by a neurologist that I recently encountered a problem with. I last saw him in October of 2013. I take...

Hi,
I was diagnosed with Fibro from a Rheumatologist about 20 years ago. I was so bad at the time that every morning I woke up I felt like a truck had run over me. My Medical doctor was very understanding and did many tests to rule things out like Lupus, MS ect. They all came back clean so...

I've done a lot of reading about how to support someone...
I was laying in bed...in pain...couldn't sleep! I just want to scream! I like most am on facebook but never post about what I am going through. Not that my friends and family wouldn't support me just don't want to advertise what I am going through! Well my husband and kids well they have heard...
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 a 40 year newly minted patient with fibromyalgia. The diagnosis was made in September 2012. Before doing this I never heard of it. (of FM)
The pain is unbearable, the worst thing is the right arm. That's painful that I learned to write with my left hand.
It all started many years ago when...
I have been having a rather hard time lately but seem to be coming out the other side, emotionally, anyway. (Buck up little Soldier, right, lol)
I came across this quote and just fell in love with it. Wanted to share ...
"Progress, however, of the best kind, is comparatively slow. Great...
