Sorry if this has been covered before; my visual perception of windows is difficult for me. I'm wondering if any members here have sensitivity to pressure from things coming into contact with the skin/body. For example, I can't fasten the top button of a top or handle the protective apron the...
Hi, is it just me? I drive my husband nuts because the cold makes my knees hurt. Then as soon as it gets warm, I feel suffocated. It’s like I’m either freezing or needing air. I feel like the heat is hotter and cold is colder.
Does anyone else have sensitivity to the loud noise and bright lights from fireworks?
My daughter was performing yesterday at a fairly big festival with the band she’s in at school and we were all given the opportunity to stay on for the fireworks display after. I was really reluctant because...
I have been going to a doctor for a few years trying to get a diagnosis. In the last two years we have discussed the following:
Quick, stabbing pains or lingering pains in random areas of the body
Tingling, numbness or burning sensation in extremities, skin feeling tight...
I am a 36 year old male and I served two combat tours in Iraq back in 2003 and 2004. For the past 10 years, I have been dealing with widespread pain primarily in my knees, shins, shoulders, back, neck, and hips. I've also been dealing with numbness in my hands and occasionally my feet (this lead...

So after hurting and aching and moping around for years, my rheumatologist thinks I may have fibromyalgia. And it makes a certain amount of sense -- in my mid 30s I really shouldn't ache all over this much, a poke to basically every trigger point makes me jump out of my skin, and the list of...
Hi Everyone. I hope you all are having a tolerable day. I don't know what to do anymore. I can barely function and sometimes am bedridden from the pain. I have been suicidal from the pain. I am wondering if this sounds like Fibromyalgia. I know that I can't be diagnosed online and am going to...
Misunderstandings happen. Do they happen more when one has Fibro?
I'm hesitant to even mention this wondering if it will be taken out of context. It just seems to me that a number of people must read into words or comments things that are not there or at least not intended to be mean or hurtful...
