    Diagnosed 3 years ago but still lost!

    I was diagnosed by a pretty crummy rheumatologist who basically went off of some blood tests taken by my GP and then felt my joints (which always hurt) and said that I had Fibro. I had no idea what that was and she didnt tell me. I stopped seeing her because she didnt listen to me and didnt seem...

    I'm in denial

    I've done quite a bit of research on fibro because I suspect my husband may have it, although the VA hasn't given him a diagnosis, he does have an rx for Lyrica and Cymbalta. But that's another can of worms. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety in college, hypothyroidism when I was 22...

    I think I might have fibromyalgia

    Hi all. I am new here. I have been thinking that I have fibromyalgia. I went to my new primary care (nurse practitioner) and told her that I thought I had it. She sent me for blood tests (all normal but sed rate was on high side) and that was that. I asked for a rheumatology referral and...

    Diagnosis After Child Birth

    Hi Everyone, I am new to the forum. I want to share my story with you and find out if anyone has had a similar experience. I have lived with bad anxiety off and on since I was a child, but after the birth of my son in October 2013 my whole life turned upside down. I had a fine pregnancy... no...

    Blessings! Giving Thanks!

    I am a seamstress out of my home. I sell stuff on a site for homemade stuff. I don't think I'm supposed to mention the name of the site. I really haven't done very well with it. Perhaps because I chose to start out with drawstring bags but I've graduated to the Vera Bradley type purses and...

    Struggling to cope

    Hi all. I've lived with fibromyalgia since 2014 (diagnosed) and like since 2010 undiagnosed. I'm a mom to a 10 month old baby. I'm a freelance writer, working about 15 hours a week. And a wife. In my pre-fibro life, I used to be a competitive weightlifting athlete, power-yoga teacher and...

    Hospital ?

    Has anyone been to the hospital due to their fibromyalgia pain? This week has been horrible for me. I have been in so much pain (all over my whole body) from the neck down. I haven't even been able to shower in 5 days. Sleep has been sporadic. Now I'm getting really emotional (crying). My...

    Wondering if I have fibro

    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...
