    Fibro Cause?

    I have heard/read that Fibro is caused by childhood trauma/accident/stress/ etc. My chiropractor explained it as your "fight or flight" reflex is turned on high and will not shut off. I got to thinking about things yesterday and this is my thought. My childhood and early adulthood were very...

    Diagnosed in March

    Hi everyone, In some ways I think I am one of the fortunate fibromyalgia sufferers in that I knew almost immediately what I had as my mother had it too. In March I had an event that lasted several days when I had slamming fatigue, flu symptoms, nausea. I expected to get better but I didn't. The...

    New and concerned!? Help

    New and need help with family problems

    I was first diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy in 2004-5. The pain became worse each day-month-year. I moved cities and now I have an FM diagnosis which makes more sense to me. I continue to have all the neuropathy symptoms plus FM. Biggest current problem is I have lost my daughter. I have...

    My husband's grandmother passed away almost 2 months ago, but the funeral is tomorrow. She was cremated and will be buried with her husband in a veteran's cemetery in South Dakota. I had been preparing myself for the traveling. This would also be an opportunity to meet a lot of my husband's...

    Passing Out?

    I had a kind of scary episode at work earlier, where I was holding some puppies for tail docking and out of nowhere I almost passed out. It started out with overwhelming fatigue, shakiness, and my limbs feeling like cement, which I thought was no big deal because that happens sometimes...

    New to the title but not the pain

    In the beginning, (6years or so ago), was Graves disease which nearly killed me before I killed it, (radioactive iodine). And, as in the program HEE HAW, they used to sing, "Deep dark depression, excessive misery." It took 4 docs and 3 years to get it regulated. And it was the worst pain by far...

    Hi there. I'm Kalli, 28 from Missouri. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and Myofascial Syndrome at the age of 26. It's been thought I've had it all my life.

    Doctors uncertain - I am pretty certain - Help?

    As I said in my introductory post... I am pretty sure I have fibromyalgia, and family friends with it have all nodded and told me that it makes sense. Unfortunately my doctors haven't been able to officially diagnose it for... whatever reason. I don't know why. My symptoms are consistent with...
