Hi All,
I'm 28 and was diagnosed with fibro at 17. I have what my doctors describe as one of the most severe cases they've ever seen. Fatigue is also a huge part of my daily life. My degree is in teaching but I have been able to build my own job and run my own tutoring business, so I still get...
A few months after Breast cancer surgery my hands would hurt, I had a hard time opening and closing them, especially in the morning. This all started aim February 14. It's gotten worse since then. My oncologist ruled out other disorders and then told me that I have fibromyalgia. My previous...
Hi, I am the dad of a 21 year son who is in constant pain. He used to love to work out and eat healthy. We thought he over did his workouts and caused injuries to his joints, but this just doesn't add up. He has gone to physiotherapy, rested for long periods with very light work outs, but...
How can I make them understand?!? I feel judged, and alone, and I keep second guessing myself, and my own pain! I feel like I have always got one ailment or another, and they are frustrated, and tired of hearing about it/dealing with it. And the pain/discomfort always changes from one day to the...

My primary care doctor has been trying to help me with my pain for nearly two years. We both decided it was time to bring a specialist in to find out what is going on. My PCP suspects arthritis and fibromyalgia. I went yesterday for my rheumatology appointment where the specialist spent less...
Hi, nice to meet you... I'm Exhausted.
First Contact
Back in 2007 I was working an emotionally taxing counseling job, that I loved, but for a shy and introverted, sensitive person it was probably too much. I must have gotten burned out and it was at this time that I first noticed feeling "not...
