    Who to believe?

    I was seen at one of the top hospitals in the US for my symptoms. I saw a rheumatologist, neurologist, infectious disease doctor, allergist, GI, and the pain clinic. I got what I like to call a 'non-diagnosis' of fibromyalgia. I tried a few medications that did more harm then good...

    Dr.s In This Area Lable Fibro Pts As Drug Seekers. Where R the ones who care?

    It seems that the doctors, for the most part, are either "cattle call" clinics or legit docs who are not on board and call patients drug seekers. How does one convince a Dr. that this is real and besides the trigger points pain, we are usually living with many more issues. When I go into the...

    I'm in denial

    I've done quite a bit of research on fibro because I suspect my husband may have it, although the VA hasn't given him a diagnosis, he does have an rx for Lyrica and Cymbalta. But that's another can of worms. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety in college, hypothyroidism when I was 22...

    I'm new to all this kind of thing but my doctor thought it might be a good idea. So many people think just because I am young (44) and a man that I should be fine and have no problem getting around or have any pain. But they are wrong. I wish that was true. I have been diagnosed with...

    Going to a Rheumotologist for the first time

    I am almost 99.99% sure that what I have has to be Fibromyalgia. I have a long history with anxiety. My father passed away in 2008 from lung/stomach cancer that was very quick less than 6 months from diagnosis and my mom passed in 2009 from early onset alzheimers. Both were 60/58 years young...

    Sensitivity to Fragrance

    For the longest time I would buy Bath and Body Works candles. I lit one today after not having a candle for awhile, and boy did it give me a nasty headache. Like the pain isn't worse enough, but now I'm sensitivity to smell as well? This was never a problem with me before. In fact, my...

    Blurry eyes

    Lately I have noticed that my eyes are blurry, is this a symptom or possibly from pain meds? Anyone having this problem too?
