    How to deal with joint pain at a standing job?

    Hey guys- I'm new and this is my first post, but my fibro diagnosis is not new. I got diagnosed when I was 12 and have been learning to deal with the constant pain since. I'm 19 now and am trying to be a productive, functioning adult but it's hard. I work at a job where I have to be on my feet...

    Thank you

    I have not been on for a while... I ended up reading some of my older threads. Seems I usually started a thread when I was very very depressed. This is usually where I wrote. Reading the responses to my threads now verses then is incredible. I did read them back then but I did not actually...

    Lol, fibro is emotionally insane sometimes

    I joined this forum today, everybody here seems really supportive. To be honest though, at first reading things here depressed me more. Everybody struggles with it so much and it makes every part of life so hard and it's not fair to any of us. Especially being 20 years old and having failed out...

    Hi From PA

    Hey everyone. I'm Samantha. I haven't been officially diagnosed yet because I ran out of money for copays and blood tests before I reached that point, but my doctor basically narrowed it down to Fibro or RA. After doing a ton of research on my own, I'm pretty sure it's fibro, mostly because the...

    Hello, fibro friends.

    My name is Megan. I'm 29, a step mom, and a wife. I used to work, but can't anymore because I can literally do nothing for my family if I also have a job. I was diagnosed in May of 2013. It's been a really hard battle, but I'm learning to deal with it much better. The things I can't seem to get...

    Anyone try a plant based diet?

    My new acupuncturist placed me on a strictly raw veggie diet (sans nightshades) for the past week. That's right, salads only, no fruit, no grains, no nuts, no cooking, just RAW VEGGIES. I used to be a serious carnivore and a terrible eater of processed foods and sugars. I've been working on a...

    Books most helpful for fibromyalgia?

    I love to read. I have been wondering, what books have all of you found to be most helpful for learning about and/or coping with fibromyalgia? Lately I have been thinking a lot about a book I read last year called "The Four Day Win". It is not actually about fibromyalgia; it is about loosing...
