    Debbie Downer & Heidi Hypochondriac?

    Does anyone else feel like Debbie Downer when they talk about their symptoms to people who aren't affected by fibro/other chronic illnesses?

    Doctor thinks I am ' the classic internet self diagnoser'!

    Do you feel like you have a cold, sore throat, slight fever with fibromyalgia?

    Hi...I am just looking for answers regarding these other symptoms that do not go away. Yes I have the aching all over, ribs hurt, hurts to breathe deep but I am worried these other flu like symptoms could be something else. Is it normal to have flu like symptoms? Best wishes to all!

    Pain and your outlook on life

    . I came here looking for some natural ways to deal with chronic pain rather than pain pills and opiates. I have read that a positive outlook plays an important role in pain management. I was wondering what your ideas or suggestions may be or if anyone may have some insight to share. .
