    Abdominal Issues

    Seems like many of us go through various abdominal issues...pain, indigestion, IBS, etc. Just want to see if anyone else keeps track of what sets it off, or if any have had issues pre-fibro diagnosis. Maybe we can find some common ground on connecting factors. I've mentioned in other posts...

    Don't know what to feel

    So I have been getting treatment at a local clinic all this time; the last two times my regular doctor wasn't in, that's why I've had to see others. I just found out that he is no longer there; he had apparently been fired for sexual misconduct with a patient, not the first time. You know, he...

    I don't know who's crazy

    I just had an appointment with an internist, someone supposedly "more experienced" than the doctors I've been seeing at my local clinic. I just brought up the possibility that I could have mitochondrial toxicity from a study drug I had been receiving. She got nasty, belligerent and said "There...

    If Pain and Fatigue Weren't a Problem...

    What would you do? Earlier, I got to thinking about things I'd like to do and try to figure out a way to make it happen. Of course, I have FM and the chronic pain holds me back from doing so much. I thought, if that wasn't a problem, ID love to take my daughter to Disney World. I'm newly...

    Been bed ridden for 3 weeks

    I can't believe how awful I feel every day for the past three weeks. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had a flareup for this long. I making appointment to see my doctor tomorrow. It's very discouraging when you can't get up and do your housework. It makes me feel pretty worthless...

    Another disappointment

    I received a letter from my attorney today and at first I was so excited I could hardly contain myself. You see I have been waiting for a hearing before an ALJ regarding my disability. My attorney told me the hearing will probably be in June and that I should receive a letter from him within 30...

    Nicotinamide riboside you make me feel so young

    Just found this interesting article regarding research done with Nicotinamide riboside. While I have not found any medical papers regarding use for fibromyalgia directly, I did find a recent one describing it as an effective treatment for mitochondrial myopathies. If you are seeing a...

    Avenues To Express Our Emotions

    So many of us deal with pain, disappointment, grief over the loss of our future expectations, the friendships and other loved ones we've lost as a result of this condition, our ability to make money, etc., and I wondered how others express it. Some in my family have drawing/painting talent, but...

    Diagnosed today

    I expected it, so I wasn't exactly shocked, but my doctor officially diagnosed me with fibromyalgia today. Part of me is so relieved because I finally have an answer... I've been struggling for so long, and I just thought I was too sensitive, too out of shape, too lazy, etc. When really, the...
