    Sleepless because of pain

    Hi all, My pain levels have been high enough to not be able to sleep through the night for a long time, so that is nothing new, but in the past month or so they have been so high that I can't stay asleep for more than 45-60 minutes at a time, at which point I am awakened by the pain, and I am...

    I must be cursed

    Well I went to my psychiatrist yesterday and he told me he is quitting his practice and moving to a different state. He at least referred me to someone else. This is the 4th doctor in a year that has left their practice. My rheumatologist left about a year ago, the doctor who was treating me...

    Kratom: A Fibro Essential

    7 months ago i had never heard of Kratom. After trying a few samples from a friend that vaguely told me about it, i became an avid researcher and epxerimenter.

    Extreme heaviness in my head in the morning

    Hello I've been feeling this on and off for a few years but been having it again. It's been pretty bad. I'll be awake and aware of it and dreaming, but can't open my eyes as the tiredness and heaviness is so painful and strong. I'll maybe be able to force an eye open but fall back into sleep...
