    Soldier with Fibro

    Greetings everyone! I am a 24 year old (male) service member on my 5th year of Active Duty! Right now I am living in Japan. So over the past 3 years or so, signs and symptoms had increased to the point where I stopped writing them off as normal pain. About 2 years ago, while stationed in the...

    Greetings and Salutations! I admit that I've been reading this forum for a while but only created a profile when I was ever so subtly instructed to (as in no more reading posts until you do). Now I can read the posts again but I'm prompted to post... so here I am. I'm new to the fibro...

    Restlessness & Pain

    So, last night was a pretty rough night for me...honestly, the worst I've had in a really long time. I laid down in bed around 10 PM. Fairly normal for me. I couldn't get comfortable to save my life. I tossed and turned until after 11, when my fiance came to bed. Long story short, I was...
