    Random symptoms: Fibro related or not?

    Hi all, As with any new diagnosis, you start to wonder if all kind of other things are related. There are a few symptoms I've noticed that may or may not be related to Fibro (or Celiac) but wanted to ask about: 1. rapid weight loss: I've lost 10lb since March! This is a good thing, since I'd...

    New to the forum, but not new to FM

    I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2005 and have been disabled since then. I only recently found these forums, but the timing is good. I just moved from North Carolina to Washington, so I lost what little support network I had. I'm much closer to family though, and that's a huge improvement...

    new doctor, how to make the best of the appoinment

    Hi, Yesterday I went to a doctor after 3 years of avoiding doctors. (had lost all my trust in doctors and hospitals, after they managed to mess up the basic/common injuries I had sustained after a fall. I now suffer even more thanks to their mistakes.) I guess I am lucky that I live in a...

    Serious stress

    I worked hard all of my life and saved money as best I could. Eight years ago I finally bought a little piece of land with a house on it and views of mountains. It is out away from town in a very quiet and peaceful place, where most of the time all you hear is birds and the breeze, which is...

    I've been trying, but adjusting seems endless...

    I've been absent from the forum for a while, just got into a depression because of multiple things going on and kind of closed off as much as I could to the outside world. My doctor started me on Effexor in February for depression and to block some of the nerve pain I have. She increased my dose...

    Plexus products with fibromyalgia and chronic pain

    I have seen lots of closed threads discussing Plexus products with fibromyalgia, so I figured I'd start an open one and share my story. I have dealt with chronic pain for over 10 years, and quickly reached the point where an sort of "pain killer" truly did nothing. As a single mum and teacher...

    Beyond Sad

    It has been a bittersweet week for me. On the plus side I finally received word that my disability was approved. On the minus side my sister in law lost her battle with diabetes and passed away yesterday morning. She has been in my life since we were both 15 years old and I will miss her...

    It all makes sense now

    Hi everyone. I'm Abby. I was officially diagnosed in February of this year by a rheumatologist, but my family doctor put me on Lyrica before Christmas. I've been in pain for years, but blamed myself for it. I was (and am) overweight, and that's society's first answer to any fat person's health...
