After being treated for pain but never diagnosed with anything for nearly 2 years, I was completely frustrated. During this time I was also tested to see if I had early onset Alzheimer's (I don't) and have also been diagnosed with sleep apnea. Thought I was going crazy.
I finally found a...

Right now, I'm just wanting to curl up into a ball and cry and I seriously think it would help to just get it out. And, I know I am just getting started in this battle which makes me want to cry worse. :cry:
I tried Cymbalta for pain and had a severe reaction to it. Dr. gave me Gabapentin. I...
My research has borne out the fact that fibro is under diagnosed in males and for many years (decades) was viewed as a condition that was a female condition.
Either I am in the wrong type of body or something is amiss because I have been diagnosed with it. I have talked to many people who have...

Sorry about that title, lol! It's just I feel so frustrated... Yesterday I went to buy new shoes for winter, a pair of really flirty and nice shoes, I thought I had found the right ones... I tried them on and everything was well. But after a while of walking in them I started to feel some...

Do many of you have tummy problems? I was led to believe that IBS and fibro go together sometimes. I know that I have to run to the bathroom so many times that I'll get frustrated and want to do a liquid diet. There's no rhyme or reason. One day I'm okay, and the next day it's five stops to the...
Hello!
My therapist suggested I find a forum group to help me deal with fibro. No one seems to understand or take the time to research what I am going through. Even my doctor is frustrated and is scheduling an appointment with a pain doctor. Recently I have been having "electric shocks" in my...
Hello all, I don't even know how to begin lol. I'll be forty this year. My mother has fibro and r.a. I have hurt in various places on my body for years now but I have HAD it with this now.:twisted: my pain is in muscles, joints, I'm starting to get migraines, and HORRIBLE menses ( hope that's...
I just developed high blood pressure in the last few months and am now going to a cardiologist. I recently started smoking again because I'm on nothing for pain and it helps very mildly with symptoms. I live in Virginia, so I can't smoke pot for pain. As it is, I'm already in pain, I'm just...
