    Tietze Syndrome

    Has anyone else been diagnosed with this? I was this morning and am wondering if it really takes 12 weeks to clear? Maybe the 12 weeks would be a blessing as was also told it can become chronic. Wouldn't that be fun on top of the FMS. I can't take pain meds of any kind without severe nausea and...

    Migraines

    Does anyone else get a lot of migraines? I have had problems with migraines for quite some time. This started long before I knew or even thought I had FMS. I still think there is some connection though. It seems that when I am in the worst pain in other areas, this is also when my migraines...

    Feeling EXTREMELY down...

    Hi Everyone, First off, I live with FMS, I don't SUFFER from it... I am generally not a complainer, I generally just stuff my feelings of inadequacies, guilt, pain, etc... Why do I stuff them? Well, my family isn't very supportive, and I find it easier to stuff them then to talk about how I...

    Hi there! FMS/CFS...now on top of a rare disorder

    I'm so glad that there is a support group forum here! I was diagnosed with FMS and CFS all in the same year of 2006. Just recently I found out that I may have inherited my mother's rare disorder Stickler Disease, but some of my symptoms are not as severe as hers. Stickler Disease is a...

    New to the boards, not FMS

    Hi, just wanted to introduce myself! I've had fibromyalgia for several years, but was diagnosed in 2009. I'm 26, and sometimes it's so hard seeing how much energy other people my age have and how much they can accomplish. Coming here for support, advice, and probably to complain a little :-)

A friend on FB, who is a pharmacist found it in their literature. I went to Urologist and she confirmed it. Now I'm on a...

    FMS and low vitamin D

    When I was diagnosed'd 12 years ago nobody said my vitamin D levels were low. now when I have annual blood draw D is very low. To take what doctor wants me to it eventually makes me sick and IBS flares. Has anyone noticed this or knows about research. It like a catch 22.

    Newbie
