    Hi! Let me be another one of those people coming in here panicking about how they think they have fibromyalgia ;P I am 20 years old.

    ok so here is my story......I hope you are sitting down. Back in 2011, my husband took me into the ER with severe abdominal pain, the ER doctor said that I was suffering from diverticulitis/colitis and possibly severe endometriosis. Went in to my gynecologist and they confirmed the...
