    *Insert Engaging Title To Lure Respondents Here*

    Well, now that you have been sufficiently lured (and oh the laugh I will have at myself if this comes to nothing but lonesome tumble weeds and errant dust devils), please endure this merciless onslaught of words and show yourself to be the steadfast victor by sharing your thoughts. This is my...

    Here we go again...

    So, I moved and now i had to see new doctors all over, again. I did print my health summaries and brought my test results. I gave doctors my worst systems. The last 2 weeks I had been severely lightheaded so that I could not stand up or barley walk. Got dizzy with it, too. Seems to be...

    New to forum

    Hello all. My name is Debbie and I have had fibro since my early 20's, was diagnosed at 30 and have had it for 30 years. I quickly realized, way back when, that there was a big stigma associated with it, so I stopped telling doctors, or anyone I even had it. I just dealt with it. I worked for...

    After years of having hip, low back, shoulder and neck pain that has waxed and waned, I was diagnosed with fibro last week by a rheumatologist. My pain has gotten worse these last few months. My stress also has increased, so I'm not all that surprised, I suppose. I am just feeling tired of...

    Am I weak if I go on disability?

    I got diagnosed in the past week, but I've had severe symptoms since October. I'm considering going on disability. I used to work ~38 hours a week but I had to quit because of the pain and fatigue. I'm only 19 and I'm stuck at my parents house. I can't work but would like some semblance of...

    New from Arizona

    Hi. My name is Linda and I'm 55. I used to be an employed engineer until this chronic pain condition killed my career a few years ago. I haven't been officially diagnosed with fibromyalgia but I strongly suspect that's what the rheumatologist will say I when I see him next week. It took me...
