I know that fibro can present itself in many different ways. Symptoms tend to vary from person to person. What were the symptoms of the onset of your disease?
I was a pretty active guy, and I started getting a lot of joint pain. Like all my joints were on fire. I chalked it up to getting...
Hi everyone
I recently had a nasty viral illness and found myself stuck in bed with a very sore chest/back and a high fever. That seemed to pass within a day or two, but shortly afterwards I had the onset of some very strange other symptoms. First I found that I had trouble grapping things with...

Does anyone struggle with severe pain and stiffness in their throat?
I’ve had intense pain in throat area for more than 2 years. It’s a stiff cramping pain and it’s relentless! Is it spasticity gone amok?
I’m more than 4 years in, classified as UMN syndrome. Pain, spasticity, difficulty...

Knowing the ravages of ALS, I would much rather be diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis any day (even though that DX is terrible but it is at least somewhat manageable compared to ALS). I had to go into the ER today with difficulty breathing and...

Hi everyone.
I am new to the Forum and am wondering about whether extreme fatigue is normal in PALS. My husband was Dx in 9/08 (Bulbar Onset), and he has been on Rilutek ever since. His decline has been slow and steady...with increasing fatigue, muscle soreness, etc. However, beginning only a...

When reading your post i did think it sounded like possibly guillan barres syndrome with its sudden onset.
then i read you tested positive for west niles virus,it may have been some time ago but these things...

Hi all. Some of you may remember me. For 5 months I have been having migratory pains that will hit one area for a few seconds to hours then move to another spot. They feel like deep toothache pains and usually affect my ankles, toes, fingers, hands, spine. A wk after the onset of this I noticed...
