Hi all. I have a job interview next Wednesday for a part-time position that will utilize my skills, allow me to work mostly from home, and help folks without medical insurance. I could not ask for a better opportunity that provides me an excellent opportunity for success. I was beginning to...
Howdy. Tried literally everything that was ever claimed to help fibro when I had insurance, nothing helps at all except for opiates. Was on 100 mg tramadol 3x a day and Prozac, to get pain down to 3 or 4. New doctor will only prescribe 50 mg tramadol 3x a day and won't prescribe an...
I have been going through something weird lately. I don't know why, but I am scared to death of everything. I am afraid to walk outside. Sometimes I am scared to death when in a car. I worry about every little thing that can go wrong. I feel like it is the beginning of something big. It seems to...

In any case, I'm still fairly new to chronic pain. The problems started in my right...
I was diagnosed about 3 weeks ago, Dr prescribed Cymbalta (spelling?) and it seemed to give some relieve, but then my eyesight started to blur so prescribing doctor told me to stop taking. I had just had my post op for cataract surgery and tested 20/20 in both eyes so the blurry eyes was awful...
I am looking for a Rheumatologist and a PCP who is knowledgeable about Fibro in the Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler area of Arizona. We had a change in insurance and I need someone who is innovative and interested in helping to find more than just pain meds. Any recommendations?
Hi my name is Tiffany. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia back in January of this year 2014. It all start with a slip and fall on ice. I have been off work since. I have also been fighting with my long term disability work insurance since May. I have lost my phone, credit cards savings and about...
My pain specialist has recommended low dose naltrexone (LDN). In high doses (50mg+) it is used to treat addicts, but in low doses (3-4 mg) taken once at night it has been said to significantly help the pain, energy levels and mood caused by fibro and some other diseases. It's very cheap...
