    Hello from Montreal

    I may be new to the forum but certainly not new to the pain of fibromyalgia. I was diagnosed with this in 2009. It originated as a pain in my chest when I tried to run. I had joined a gym several months prior with a personal trainer and was doing great...until I wasn't anymore. My trainer was...

    How long does a flare up normally last?

    Now I have been officially diagnosed can anyone tell me how long a flare up normally lasts? During a flare up can you have good days and not so good days? Once it improves how long before it returns. I know this will probably be different for different people but I just wanted a general idea.

    Finding common ground with Fibromyalgia

    Hello! I am new to this forum although not new to Fibro. I have had it for about 5-6 years. I am excited to finally find a good online support group for this condition. It is hard sometimes to not be able to talk about the struggles to others who don't understand. Thank you for all of the posts...

    The Path To Treatment Continues

    I have mentioned here before that I was trying to change my doctor due to the overwhelming urge to knock the first one into the floor. On my last visit to him, he refused my request for a referral to a rheumatologist on the basis of "a rheumatologist only sees patients with rheumatological...

    Making the best of Fibromyalgia

    Hey everyone, I'm new here. I've apparently had fibro for a while but wasn't properly diagnosed until last year. Recently I've started trying to find support groups, mostly it makes me feel very alone because not many people get it. People tease me about whining, or that I never say I'm good...

    New from Ontario

    Hi there from Canada! I was diagnosed with fibro two and a bit years ago but, as my dh said once he'd read a thorough description, 'you've had this since I've known you' -- so that would be a good twenty years (I'm in my mid 40s now). Definitely hit a downward spiral a few years ago when I went...
