I'm sorry guys, but I couldn't think of a title that could explain my situation better :shock: I seem to have incredibly delicate hands... yesterday I washed with my hands (very gently really) some delicates. I thought: ''well, not big deal''. Big mistake! I applied really small pressure...
Hi, everyone- new here (but not new to fibro) and looking for community. I'm in my mid-30s and in the last few weeks of my seventh straight year of college- I went back in 2009 to complete a BA, then turned around and went into an MA program after graduation, THEN turned around and started a PhD...

I have been in a limbo the past few months with my health. It all started around August when I developed an eye twitch. I googled it and was determined I had a serious illness. Once I read about certain diseases (MS, particularly) I was positive that was what was wrong with me and started having...
Hi all you fellow sufferers. I posted a tread called 'help' under newbie by mistake as I am NEW and not used to the site. A few have viewed my plea but no replies....would love a bit of support and hope. From willow and a dreary morning in the UK!
Hi, I was wondering if anyone else is having trouble with their memory? In the last few weeks, I have had several episodes. Once I was driving home and completely forgot where I lived, I had to sit in my car for about 10 minutes then it came to me. I got an email from an eye doctor thanking me...

Bottom line is that I can no longer take the...
