    Feel Disregarded by my Neurologist

    First, hello! My name is Jen, and I have been in the precess of getting diagnosed with some sort of Neurological disorder for about 6 months now. My Neurologist continuously tells me "I think it is Fibromyalgia" every time I see him. He has done this since the first day I saw him with my...

    New to forum

    Hi, I'm new to the forum. I decided to seek out advice and a place to vent and understand as no one in my family or friends seem to understand what all Fibro encompasses and how it affects everything. I was diagnosed in March of this year after having pain and symptoms for months with such...

    why even bother waking up anymore?

    I just don't see the point. I'm only 18 and already I can't work, I can't leave my house, I have to cancel appointments left and right because moving is just too painful and the motion itself makes me impossibly nauseous. My girl left me because we haven't been able to see each other for a...

    stessed out!

    What can you do about gossip in the neighborhood. One neighbor is trying to cause as much trouble as possible for me. I can't believe how people that you don't even know start giving you the cold shoulder. I hear them say commence and sneeker when I take my dog for a walk. I can't believe that...

    Hi everyone!

    I am new here. I was diagnosed with fibro quite a few years ago. I was in an accident back when I was in high school (decades ago) where I was riding a bike and got hit by a car, and that is what started it all. I have been through the gamut of trying different ways to "heal." The only thing...

    Urgent Lyrica Question!

    I'm 18 and I was just diagnosed with FM and CFS on July 30th. My rheum started me on Lyrica Thursday night, and today I was reading about side effects. First off, I'm seeing that most people expereince side effects before the drug starts working. That's horrifying, to be frank, but not as...

    Go get a job! Not as easy as it sounds.

    I've been under a lot of pressure to get a job. My current financial situation is hard. I live with my partner and he has a low paying full time job. When I was in school my parents supported me but I've been out of school for a year now and work on photography/graphic design/ retouching is hard...

    How fibromyalgia affected me

    Hi everyone. So this is my story. My symptoms started when I was 15. About 2 years later I was diagnosed. How it has affected me the most has been in school. In highschool I had pretty understanding teachers. My English teacher even excused me being late for a month so I could take physical...

    How Fibromyailgia Has Affected Me

    I've already been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, after which I promptly pissed off my Rheumatologist by saying I thought nobody believed that to be a legitimate diagnosis. He said, "Well, I do." I've always had bad luck with doctors. They always say I have an unusual case. Nothing is ever easy...
