    Hi I'm a 40 year newly minted patient with fibromyalgia. The diagnosis was made in September 2012. Before doing this I never heard of it. (of FM) The pain is unbearable, the worst thing is the right arm. That's painful that I learned to write with my left hand. It all started many years ago when...

    New to FIBRO, still digesting it...

    Almost two months ago, my wrists started hurting. In another two weeks, all my joints were hurting. Sometimes it was so bad I couldn't concentrate at work, or enough to do just about anything else. I went to see my regular doctor, and I was tested for just about everything under the sun. All...

    I Was Skeptical But It Does Work

    I went to this lady who is also diagnosed with Fibromyalgia but is not living in the pain and all the other crappy symptoms that come along with it.
