    Frustrated, sad, and kind of overwhelmed.

    Yesterday I made dinner for my mother as a belated Mother's Day present. I went to the grocery store, prepared a meal, and that was my whole day. And it wrecked me. Being on my feet long enough to chop some veggies, put pork chops in the oven, and purchase the groceries to do so. It felt...

    New to the forum and not yet diagnosed

    Hi everyone, I'm currently taking a semester off from my university due to what my doctor suspects to be fibromyalgia pains as we just recently ruled out brain structure abnormalities with a CT scan (with and without contrast) and my blood work was normal besides a positive ANA test. I have a...

    My first post

    I've had a rough winter, my fibromyalgia and lupus seem to only be getting worse. I've had symptoms since I was 9, but I wasn't diagnosed until age 22. Having a diagnosis is bitter sweet. I have proof that it's not in my head and I'm not overreacting, but it also means that this isn't going to...

    Months of tests for fibromyalgia diagnosis

    I am new to this group. Diagnosed with Fibro in April after months of tests. Right now I'm just reaching out. I'm so overwhelmed with trying to deal with this. And yet at times I'm also still not sure what "this" really is.

    Newly diagnosed and overwhelmed

    After being treated for pain but never diagnosed with anything for nearly 2 years, I was completely frustrated. During this time I was also tested to see if I had early onset Alzheimer's (I don't) and have also been diagnosed with sleep apnea. Thought I was going crazy. I finally found a...
