    Not sure if I have Fibromyalgia or not...

    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...

    Pressure from your partner?

    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.

    New Member's Story or Stories, I'M the First on this new thread!

    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...

    The craze

    Some day I feel good as one can and others I just want to lie down into a fetal position and die but not literal. My worst season my pain increases is winter and my better season is summer. I notice that weather effects me because of the barometric pressure systems in our atmosphere. My sleep...

    my wife's experiences with fibromyalgia

    In February, 1994, my wife slipped down a wooden stairway covered with dry snow, sustaining a left distal comminuted fracture of the left wrist. When she landed at the bottom of the stairs, she also hit her chin against the stairs. The major symptoms she suffered following this were leg...

    Diagnosed last week and in slight denial

    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...

    Go get a job! Not as easy as it sounds.

    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...
