    Intro to me!

    Hello-I'm new to this forum. I discovered it while researching fibro and medical marijuana. In December of 2012, I was admitted to the hospital with acute colitis. After I was discharged, I just could not recover. I felt like I had the flu and could not walk across my house. My GP assured me...

    Surprised

    I'm surprised how many people here are still able to work and drive their cars! I've never driven or gotten a liscense, but I know I couldn't be trusted to get behind the wheel now with my fibro and foot problems, along with the meds making me less likely to catch hazards and other road sense...

    Do we really have fibro

    how many of you after many years with this, every really accepted you got it. It's been well over ten years for me and yet I still get days where I think could it be something else. I put this down to the fact that the gps still don't believe it's a illness . That's it's a label they give then...

    Medication

    I'm pretty fed up with the new fda rules. Being cut way down was one thing , but.....from 30 MG a day, to Tylenol 15 twice a day? My husband is livid and I'm in bed, with pain and new blood pressure meds that are scary. There has to be hundreds of angry people! Who are they to tell our Dr's...

    My Story: Was diagnosed today

    For as long as I can remember, pain has been part of my life. Maybe not as a young kid but as early as 18 years old I remember a 6 month episode of headaches and dizziness that no doctor (I saw about 9 or more), could explain. I was tested for things that I didn’t knew but I know they screened...

    Maybe I have it?

    Hi! My Doctor suspects that I have fibromyalgia (my mother has it too). I have had a weird burning sensation all over my body for 1 1/2 years now. It's always present on the front of my legs (shins) but fluctuates over the rest of my body. Sometimes the burning sensation is intense and other...

    newbie here

    hey everyone. I have been looking for a place where I could vent and not be criticized or given "that look". I have been living in pain for the last 10 years and was finally diagnosed with fibromyalgia in June. While it is nice to finally have a diagnosis and get treatment for it as opposed...

    Daily Things

    First time on a FMS site and my biggest question is what tips can you share about daily living with FMS. For instance, I have had to hire a housekeeper to clean and vacuum for me. Many days I rest for 20-30 minutes, then get up and around for 20-30 min. Which means I never accomplish what I...
