Hi everyone. I want to ask a question that I hope all will reply to.
How many of you smoke?
I ask because I have been developing some developing symptoms to my fibro diagnosis and I have all the time in the world to search for possibilities of the cause of this hideous disorder.
I have...
Hello everyone
My name is Nicola, I'm 21 years old and live in Wales, UK.
I was officially given the diagnosis of fibromyalgia today after years of joint pain finally cumulated in getting an examination from a rheumy and then an Isotope scan.
Today I got the results from my GP. There were...
I've been reading about fibromyalgia again, I like to learn as much as I can. Anyway, I was reading about how this Low Dose Naltrexone (or LDN for short) is supposed to be pretty effective for fibro symptoms. Has anyone tried this? Here is a link for a study about it.
I have been hypoglycemic since I was pregnant with my son 6 years ago. I have noticed some on the forum mention low blood sugar and hypoglycemia. Is there a connection between fibromyalgia and hypoglycemia? Most research I have done is not clear. Do any of you have issues with low blood...
Hi All,
I am 30 years old and have been dealing with CP, depression and several other symptoms for 10 years now. After coming across info on Fibromyalgia, I feel like I have found gold- something that identifies this group of vicious little monsters that taunt me every day.

After 4 months of waiting to get in, I finally got to see a rheumatologist yesterday. During the appointment the Dr said that fibro is always a secondary symptom of some other issue that she suspects that she can treat. This would be great news if there is something else that can be treated...
I've been doing a bit more research on things and I've been reading about IUD's possibly making Fibro symptoms worse.
I'm interested in this because I recently decided to go with an IUD. I had mine inserted about two months ago. I went with Mirena. So far, I've had cramping, but that's normal...
I have FINALLY found some relief from my fibromyalgia. I am so thankful for it and I just want to be able to share with all of those out there suffering with it. I tried many different medications that didn’t really help much and the side effects were so horrible that after a few years and much...
