Hello Friends,
I am a 65 year old female retired public school teacher. I had to retire in 1997 when I was diagnosised with FM. I had taught second grade 5 years and first grade 23 years. I enjoyed teaching and grieved very much when I had to retire at the age of 50. I was in an inner city...

I'm extremely down in the dumps. Maybe I could get some guidance from veteran sufferers? Here is what is going on (and please excuse my disjointed post):
I was just diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in March (2013). I have suspected that I had it for almost 3 years. Two years ago, I had chronic...

Well, let's start from the beginning of my story and see what everyone thinks.
I'm 22 years old.
I guess looking back on it, I've had signs of this for awhile but it didn't become such a debilitating problem until a few month ago.
At this time I was walking over an hour to work at a call...

Hello fellow sufferers of Fibro...
I was finally diagnosed with fibromyalgia last week, and I am just looking for some direction. My pain began last October. It all started in my right pinky finger and spread from there. I have now been dealing with chronic widespread pain for about 9 months. I...

So, I'm new here, but I'm not new to Fibro. I was diagnosed in October of 2007 while living in NYC. It was brutal. Just so much pain and no answers on how to fix it. The fibro makes me so sensitive to medications I couldn't take anything but AdvilPM and Tramadol - and even that was hit or miss...

Good afternoon everyone,
After at least a year (potentially more) I have come to the realization that something more is wrong with me than just being utterly exhausted all of the time. I feel I may have fibromyalgia, or rheumatoid arthritis, or a combination of the two.
I would like to...

Hello all!
I'm 24 years old and was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia about 3 years ago. It first started as just some small shooting pains in my arms, so I got a blood test and it showed that I had rheumatoid arthritis. My rheumatologist had me on tons of different...
Just introducing myself.
Hi
I was diagnosed with CFS in 1999, following a couple of years of constant viral infections. I was given various blood tests which all came back negative. My white cells were mapped and found to be working properly in response to each infection, but still new...
