Greetings all,
For years I have suffered with poor sleep due to pressure points/aches in my hips and back while lying in bed. I have purchased and tried every mattress known to man, but none has helped me sleep any better. While I am not an extreme case, I would still love to resolve this issue...
Does your partner pressure you or make you feel bad when you are in pain and cannot be as active as you are normally? I have to pretend that I feel good most days, because I know mine would leave me if he knew how I really felt.
I don't really know how to begin telling you my story, but to say that it was just a total nightmare; I really believe at this time that if my God had not made this work better for me, I would not still be alive at this time! It all started because of my being an idiotic child in the 7th grade...

Hi all,
I am so glad to be here. Let me tell you a little about myself. I have recently been diagnosed with fibromyalgia but have suffered from it for a couple of years. It started getting really bad when I took a job in document management where I basically spent my entire day pulling...
Does anyone else have issues with tap water quality?
Since moving into my partner's place (well before I even moved in...). First time I ever took a shower the water was burning my skin and was not relieved until I went back to my own house to shower.
Now 2 years later I can't even drink or...

Last week a rheumatologist diagnosed me with fibromyalgia/chronic pain.
I should share that I was diagnosed as hypothyroid 4 years ago. And I'm overweight. I've blamed many of my problems on my weight, even as my dosage for my hypothyroidism has increased.
Over the last two + years, many...
I've been under a lot of pressure to get a job. My current financial situation is hard. I live with my partner and he has a low paying full time job. When I was in school my parents supported me but I've been out of school for a year now and work on photography/graphic design/ retouching is hard...
