    An Actual Diagnosis

    So after a few failed attempts to see different Rheumatologists I finally found one willing to see me. He took the time to really listen to everything I had going on and all of the appointments I've already had. He asked a ton of questions and actually listened to the answers. I was in his...

    Social Security questions

    Hello all! First-time poster. I apologize for the pending text wall. I'll keep it as brief as possible. I've had fibro/chronic fatigue, plus a small slew of other problems, since I hit puberty. It was always bad, but it got progressively worse until I was about 22 (I'm 25 now). By the time I...

    Ignorance of People

    I've had autoimmune issues since I was 8 years old. I'm 34 now, so I've been 'sick' longer than I haven't been. It's a way of life and I can hide it pretty darn well.

    Hi everyone. This is my first post, so let me introduce myself. My name is Kailas and I'm dating a girl with fibromyalgia. We've been together for roughly five and a half years and she was diagnosed just about a year ago, when she was 21. I've done a lot of reading about how to support someone...
