    Diagnosed today

    I expected it, so I wasn't exactly shocked, but my doctor officially diagnosed me with fibromyalgia today. Part of me is so relieved because I finally have an answer... I've been struggling for so long, and I just thought I was too sensitive, too out of shape, too lazy, etc. When really, the...

    Are there any positives from your pain/Fibromyalgia?

    I know people with chronic health conditions can sometimes dwell on the negative, so I wanted to start a thread where we could talk about anything positive that has come out of our conditions/diagnoses. I used to be a balls to the wall kind of person. I would push through, regardless of how I...

    Anyone heard of Functional Medicine

    So since my primary physician has diagnosed me with fibro without any kind of exam, my neuro says I don't have fibro, but doesn't know what I have and wants to wait and see (if I continue to get worse and for other symptoms) and my rheumy said he is on the fence with fibro but wants to dig...
