    So Much!

    I have quite a long story that has lead me to this forum. I'll try and make it short and sweet. Everything started happening after I got pregnant with my one and only child who just turned 5 years old. About 1/2 way into pregnancy I developed electric like pain in my hands and feet.

    Fibromyalgia without typical pain

    I was sure the "do I have this?" questions would be numerous and look there's a whole section for it. My situation is complex and my brain is all foggy and tired but I'm trying to leave the blackout curtain open long enough to cool the room so I will try to get started and probably ramble on...

I try not...

    Sleep

    My understanding is insomnia is a common symptom of this. Personally, I had both sleep onset as well as sleep maintenance insomnia (meaning I didn't sleep at all for close to 3 years). So ... I had to research and experiment with just about every drug out there on my journy to getting better...

    Do these symptoms check out?

    Hello, I'm 27 and, after looking up the symptoms of fibromyalgia, I'm wondering if I may not be suffering from it. I also looked up some of the possible causes of fibro. I'll begin when the symptoms started, after I had a mRSA infection at the age of 22. The doctors surgically removed the...

After the dust settled I had a hard time walking, talking, sleeping, staying awake and crazy pain. My...
