Hi, I'm new to the forum, my name is Katie. I feel I need to let someone with fibro issues know about the possibility of using Dextromethorphan for pain.
I've had FM for 6 years, diagnosed only a year ago. I previously tried combos of Tylenol and ibuprofen (one is processed by the liver, the...
Meditation is a great way to reduce the stress and anxiety that seems to accompany Fibromyalgia. Not only can it help this condition, but I believe that it can help with every condition that you may encounter in your life because it works on the mind and the body. All it takes is just a few...
Obviously a huge problem with fibro, chronic fatigue etc is finding pass times that are enjoyable but not overwhelming. I have enjoyed (and occasionally still do but not regularly) horse riding and fishing but found problems with both. Then last year I started getting into photography starting...
Hello everyone. I am scared that I might have fibromylagia. My mom has this and she says she has it mildly. She doesn't sleep well and seems crabby and irritable a lot. I do not want to be that way. I know when I don't sleep well I says things I regret all the time.
I have been having...
I have quit my job because I couldn't cope anymore. I thought I could take care of my health and get the rest I needed so desperately . My Husband is working more and even some weekends. If he doesn't work the over time then we live pay check to pay check. This illness doesn't stop taking from...

I have an appt. with a Rheumatologist on the 24th of next month that is suppose to treat patients with Fibro. Has anyone went to one? If so could you please let me know what to expect? I don't have high hopes that he will help me, due to many years of suffering with this and not finding any...
Hello all, I am new to this diagnosis but not to the pain. For a few years I have had pains and health issues but in the last year (since I moved to Florida) my health has gone down hill. My GP after several MD visits came to the conclusion that I suffer from fibromyalgia. I have a neurologist...
What can you do about gossip in the neighborhood. One neighbor is trying to cause as much trouble as possible for me. I can't believe how people that you don't even know start giving you the cold shoulder. I hear them say commence and sneeker when I take my dog for a walk. I can't believe that...
