    Diagnosed in March

    Hi everyone, In some ways I think I am one of the fortunate fibromyalgia sufferers in that I knew almost immediately what I had as my mother had it too.

    New here

    I was diagnosed with Fibro last year, but my pain started a few years ago. I dealt with leg/hip pain for two years, went through a couple months of physical therapy twice, saw several doctors and had several tests done.

    How do you get people to take you serious about your pain

    Hello from Dundee, Scotland

    Just 'popping' in to say hello. I can go a few weeks without feeling a single symptom at all and I begin to doubt my doctor's 'prognosis' (is that the right word). Then I get hit again and sometimes a lot and sometimes a little. Reading on other sites about how some people are affected I...

    Sugar Binge and Sleeping

    My husband will go on these sugar binges where he just eats A LOT of sugary sweets. I don't understand it and honestly eating that much sugar at one time would make me sick. He does it and then he goes to sleep. My husband actually has this bad habit of needing to sleep any time he eats a lot...

    Natural/OTC Pain Management Tips?

    My husband has a rod in his leg from a really bad car accident when he was a lot younger. It puts him in an immense amount of pain. Doesn't have much to do with Fibromyalgia.

    My legs hurt when I walk alot. The worst part for me is how my ankles swell up, and then my leg pain feels even worse. How many Fibromyalgia suffers also have trouble with leg pains that also leave their ankles swollen? I have trouble sleeping when my ankles are swollen, and when this happens I...
