    Sometimes its overwhelming

    All the pain. The pills. The doctors appointments. The feeling like a failure because i cant complete normal, once everday, ordinary tasks. I have to rest after drying my hair. Which i can barely do. I need help to cook, or must rest or sit while doing it. Its crazy. Im only 23, i just feel...

    What are the other options (if not Fibro)

    Hello All, I have been seeing doctors for pain and parasthesia for over three years now with no diagnosis. Actually, that's not fair, because for 12-13 months while I was pregnant with my youngest and right after, I did not have symptoms and was not being seen for that purpose. I presented to...

    Hello all. I feel like you are all wonderful people as you are here to help each other and to offer advice and comfort. I am 64 years old and have been diagnosed with fibro since approximately 2010. I have generalized pain, centered mostly in the legs and hips, ribs, and shoulders. I have tried...

    So many people here

    When I read your stories I know them all as I read them. I'm gonna share this for me, maybe because I need to. I've survived nearly 20 year with undiagnosed fibro and was diagnosed last month. The struggle brought me to the edge of giving up on life many times but thank God I'm still here...

    Will it ever end

    Another big disappointment this past week. I had called my attorney in regards to a question I had. He answered that question and asked me if I had any more questions. I asked him if he had any idea on when I would get my hearing before an ALJ. When we first met last April (2015) he said it...

    Here we go again

    I am sitting at my computer getting ready to compose yet another letter to my attorney as to what my conditions are, what my doctors are saying about them and how I feel they prevent me from working. This has got to be the 10th letter I have written on this same subject this year. I am getting...

    Another disappointment

    I received a letter from my attorney today and at first I was so excited I could hardly contain myself. You see I have been waiting for a hearing before an ALJ regarding my disability. My attorney told me the hearing will probably be in June and that I should receive a letter from him within 30...

    The Princess And The Pea

    I don't know how many of you are familiar with this story, but I recall hearing it a time or two when I was young. Years later, after I had been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and was trying to explain it to someone, I told them it was similar to what happens to the princess in the story. I'm sure...

    New to the Forum

    Hello everyone - I’ve just been recently diagnosed, but have known for several years that I probably had fibro. My mom has it and was disabled because of it and she had seen symptoms developing in me. At her request, I went to see a doctor about it and he was none too happy that I was telling...

    I spoke with my attorney yesterday and he said I should get a hearing in either June, July or August and then get the decision about a month later. This is very disappointing news as I was originally told I would most likely have my hearing in June. I worry and fret about this constantly and...
