    Newly Diagnosed

    Hi...I am new to all of this, having only had a confirmed diagnosis of Fibromyalgia a few weeks ago. I don't know anyone else with the condition, and I feel a little bit insecure about it all.

    Cymbalta

    Reluctantly I tried Cymbalta (again). I'm waking up with stomach pain, heart palpatations. I know he's trying to put me on antidepressants because he doesn't want me on opiates, I'm only on 10 mg. 2 times a day.

    So much shame...

    This probably goes w/o saying, but having been diagnosed unexpectedly (ystrdy) after years of searching for answers and coming up short, I feel a lot of denial, frustration and sadness. I am not naive to the realities, but there is a crazy amount of shame that comes w/ this dx for me. First...

    Totally drained

    Hello. I'm new here and this is my first post. I'm so glad to have found this site after a couple of years of battling this on my own. My journey has been long and hard.

    Sad State

    It is a sad state of affairs that in this country I can not find a doctor who will help me. My PCP is useless. I have called doctor after doctor only to be told no for one reason or another. One doctor takes my insurance but isn't taking on new patients. One doctor is taking on new patients...

    So many people here

    When I read your stories I know them all as I read them. I'm gonna share this for me, maybe because I need to. I've survived nearly 20 year with undiagnosed fibro and was diagnosed last month. The struggle brought me to the edge of giving up on life many times but thank God I'm still here...
