Hi everyone. This is my first post, so let me introduce myself. My name is Kailas and I'm dating a girl with fibromyalgia. We've been together for roughly five and a half years and she was diagnosed just about a year ago, when she was 21.
I've done a lot of reading about how to support someone...
Hi there,
I am just wondering if anyone else has had their health issues affect their marriage? I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in 2008. Had 3 surgeries and several RAI treatments at high doses due to the aggressiveness of my cancer. I have had way too many CT scans in the past 5 years. I...

I have a friend over a few hours a week (we have a weekly gaming group). I don't really form a major part of her treatment. She's been having trouble, and it flares up. I know she's a bit self-conscious about it. I don't fully understand Fibromyalgia, but I have problems of my own and I'm more...
My Narcolepsy Story:
I have been dealing with fibromyalgia symptoms for over a decade. Exhaustion, body pain, lack of energy and mostly miserable a lot of the time but.. I recently moved to California and now that my hubby has good insurance I went to see a rheumatologist who thought I had sleep...
So yesterday we had a big snow storm blow thru and it was a rough day for me pain wise. Today my pain is all over but the worst pain is in my groin/inside of my hip. Has anyone else had to deal with pain in this area, and if so what did you do to help it. I can't sit, or stand and I can only...
I am new here but not so new to this awful pain . I need people who understand and don't judge . I really don't have any support as I work in the medical field and fibro is a "joke" . My family is just sick of me being sick and my friends just tell me I need to be strong like I used to be . Yes...
I am not happy right now. I received a call from my insurance stating my out of pocket for my Remicade infusions for my psoriatic arthritis will cost me $9,000 per year! Needless to say, I cannot afford that. It was really helping me tolerate the arthritis and works better than the other...
Hi, I haven't been diagnosed yet but my doctor is expecting me to be as I have all the symptoms.
I am 22 and I have had symptoms of fibromyalgia for at least 10 years. At first I was seen as a hypochondriac but over the last 8 years or so I have had other health problems diagnosed like IBS and...
I'm a new member, probably one of the few male members.
I am not new to fibromyalgia, however. I have had this condition for many years - decades.
I was initially diagnosed in 1991, when many more doctors than now dismissed overall body pain. Fibromyalgia had only recently been given it's...

Hello I am new to this group and so happy I found it. I am currently on a waiting list to see a Fibromyalgia specialist, so I have not been diagnosed yet but several doctors think I have it, so I am going to share my situation with you and see what you all think.
Sorry if this is long but it...
