    Sound sensitivity?

    I've always been a bit sensitive to very loud noises (music especially). But in the past few months it has really gotten worst and I've been wondering if it could have anything to do with fibro? For example, last night I was sitting with my partner and we were talking, and he wasn't talking...

    Sun Sensitivity?

    A few weeks ago, on Easter Sunday, we spent a few hours outside at the park with our grandbabies while they had an egg hunt. Later that evening, I noticed that my face was itching frequently and when I looked in the mirror I noticed some hives on my face and neck. I took some Benadryl and by...

    Moderating use of painkillers

    People suffer from one or more debilitating conditions one time or another resulting in pain or discomfort. I bet that in this life, we will never be 100% kosher under the sun. There is a silent epidemic raging as a result of drug insensitivity occasioned by overuse of painkillers. Some use...

    Do you think I should see a doctor about symptoms?

    Hello, I'm posting here because I would like to get thoughts as to whether or not I should get some of the symptoms I have checked out. I'd never heard of fibromyalgia before I started googling random pain. Thing is, I am a pretty anxious person and wonder if a lot of the symptoms I have...

    Fibro and/or chronic fatigue?

    Hi all - I've been away for too long! I keep forgetting about this wonderful community. Thank you, fibrofog! I am confused about the differences between fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. 15 years ago I had an undiagnosed illness I now believe was Chronic Fatigue. 3 years of utter exhaustion and...

    Sensitivity to Fragrance

    For the longest time I would buy Bath and Body Works candles. I lit one today after not having a candle for awhile, and boy did it give me a nasty headache. Like the pain isn't worse enough, but now I'm sensitivity to smell as well? This was never a problem with me before. In fact, my...

    Did my doctor really just say that?

    So I just moved to a new location which meant that I had to find a whole new set of doctors and it has been painful, a different kind of pain from the flu-like achy all over electric nerves on fire whole body pain. This is more the - want to pull my hair out, scream, be belligerent but biting my...

    Pain / sensitivity in underarm and side of breast

    Hello all, A bit about me: 24 years old, female, Australia, no known medical problems. I recently started feeling discomfort in the area of my left armpit / side of breast. It is a dull, radiating kind of pain. I would have attributed it to some kind of muscle or nerve pain, but when I barely...

    The Uncertainty of the Pain/Fatigue

    What I hate the most (today) about suffering from fibromyalgia is how I never know what my limit for activity is until I've suddenly reached it. I will be in a "normal" state of sensitivity, aching, stiffness and set about a task- and complete it. I rest for a bit, and I set about another...
