    Thanks for allowing me to join! I am a busy CEO of a women owned business

    I feel like I have come girl circle in the last five years with no relief. I have been to GM doctors, chiropractors, rheumatologist, spinal specialist all to no avail. I had a c5/6 spinal fusion in 2011 which shows everything exactly in tact but my body functions seem to be getting weaker daily...

    Oy, those days...

    When lifting a feather pillow to put on a pillow case feels like you're trying to lift a ton. REALLY?! Come on body, work with me here. I know I had PT yesterday, but that was all leg and lower back work, and barely counts!

    I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia about 2 years ago after over 2 years of going back and forth to doctors. Once I was diagnosed, the doctor started me on Lyrica. It worked great for about 6 months and I managed to gain about 30 lbs. during that time. I'm on Cymbalta now, and it's helping, but I...

    Almost Diagnosed

    So I've had doctors say "Well, it could be Fibromyalgia. Here, you should try this Metanx stuff." It's basically a B-vitamin food supplement that costs an arm and a leg and is marketed for diabetic neuropathy, not fibromyalgia. Another doctor did some blood tests and said "You have non-specific...

    Fibromyalgia and leg pain

    I was diagnosed with Fibro in 1994. Since then, I had 2 remissions, which lasted a short time. The leg pain can be so unbearable during the winter months, that I can hardly walk around the house. Prior to getting neuropathy (nerve damage) in my legs and feet, I walked 3 short walks a day...
