    Hello from College Station, TX

    I am a Fibro fighter. I was diagnosed in 2009 when my kids were only 2 and 3 years old. At the time, I was in my mid-20's. I tried the traditional approach to treating this illness with all the drugs that my docs prescribed. They made me worse and worse to the point that I was completely...

    Hi from Orlando

    I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia shortly after my c-section, but I believe I had it before that just not as severe. I have PCOS and Graves Disease, but the Fibro is worse than both of them put together. My thyroid disease has gone into remission for the time, so I don't have to take as many...

    Positive outlook?

    Happy to have found this forum. Is it hard for you to stay positive? I often feel like I don't know how to cope with my "new" self.

    Drugs

    I have been on Cymbalta for 4 years and have been happy with the results. For my last refill I was given the generic version and it doesn't seem to be working. Very slowly all of my symptoms are returning and I'm not happy. It usually starts in my neck, my forearms and strangely enough, the...

    Ignorance of People

    I've had autoimmune issues since I was 8 years old. I'm 34 now, so I've been 'sick' longer than I haven't been. It's a way of life and I can hide it pretty darn well. My parents have retired in Mexico and I spend, at least, the winters there, with them. The stable and not cold weather makes a...

    Alternative medicine

    Guys I just wanted to write a little post about alternative medicine. There are many scam artists out there who would do and tell anything to get your money so be careful! As a physician I see things like this often, people who are in pain and without hope are those who would try anything to...
