My story begins about seven months ago. I woke up one morning with horrible dizziness, nausea, and headaches. I visited my PCP who initially thought I was having migraines and that this pain would go away. The pain didn't go away and so when I returned, he ordered a CT scan of my brain which...

Hello. I'm new to this forum. I was diagnosed with fibre since 2008. Just had a baby last month and have been in extreme pain since delivery. Not sure if this is a flare or reaction from epidural. I've been having pain radiating down both legs from butt to ankles. Sometimes it keeps me from...
Hi everyone. I was newly diagnosed with fibromyalgia and RLS last month. I went to the rheumatologist today and he prescribed protriptyline. He said the pharmacy would have to order it, and he was right. I know it is a very old drug, but does anyone have any experiences to share regarding...
Hello all,
I am a survivor of this condition called Fibro, I am a disabled veteran, a mother and a daughter. Living with this condition some days makes every nerve in my body wanting to scream. Some say that it does NOT cripple or debilitate, but what do they know? They know nothing of every...
I was diagnosed with fb in June of 2014. I have suffered with daily headaches and 2 to 3 migraines weekly for 14 years. I have had abodomen pain off and on for about 40 years thinking that its my appendix but it always went away. Couple of years ago I started having sinus allergies. I have had...
After being diagnosed with fibromyalgia years ago, my neurologist has put me on a variety of medication and up until now, none seems to really work. I am currently on opiate and feel it is also not effective. Am fed up with the side effects and withdrawal symptoms of lexapro and opiate, I plan...
First, hello! My name is Jen, and I have been in the precess of getting diagnosed with some sort of Neurological disorder for about 6 months now. My Neurologist continuously tells me "I think it is Fibromyalgia" every time I see him. He has done this since the first day I saw him with my...

Hi I'm a newbie (to this forum not fibromyalgia) I'm a 34yr old mother of 3 and for 7yrs I've complained of fatigue and all over body pain. I was diagnosed about 8 months ago and have had every test done to finally get a answer to why at 34 I feel like a 90yr old woman. I was first prescribed...

Hi All,
I have been diagnosed with fibro for a while. More recently, my Rheumatologist recommended I go see a neurologist just to rule any possible neurological issues out. My Neurologist had me take an EMG.
If you don't know what an EMG is, it is a two-part test. First, they hook...
