Hello and thanks for having me. I have FMS and CFS. I was diagnosed not very long ago.
I have been reading that abuse (which I have endured from infancy until 21 - all forms: sexual abuse/multiple r*pes, severe psychological/verbal/emotional abuse, and severe physical abuse) can be a cause of...
Hi all...I'm new to an online support group. I have been living with Fibro for years, but finally accepted the diagnosis a few years ago. I'm feeling very alone.... I wish my friends/family could see my pain, and understand. I need some support, and encouragement. Hoping to find it here...I'm...
Hi-
I am a new member to this forum support group.
I have been taking Low Dose Naltrexone for my FMS pain for almost 2 years.
LDN is a trace amount (4.5 mg. or less) of Naltrexone. It's an old drug and therefore no drug companies are pushing doctors to prescribe it.
I had found out about it...

Hi guys,
I am on long term disability right now, but my human resource department at work also does follow ups with me on a monthly basis. Does anyone else deal with this or suffer from anxiety as a result? I find it so stressful to be asked about my expected return to work date, or if I have...
Anybody on this site located in the Springfield, Il area. If so, do you know of any support groups in this area or would you be interested in meeting one on one someplace to discuss the affects of fibro with me.
I suffer from fibro and CFS. My husband doesn't take me seriously and constantly reminds me how the house, bills etc have been neglected. My only support was my mother and she just text me to tell me to get it together, to give it to god. That my marriage and pain is affecting her life. I'm...
I have my first appointment back with my primary doctor since my diagnosis. I haven't seen her since October and even that was the first time seeing her. Since then, a lot has changed with my illness as well as my insurance. I'm worried about what she's going to try to 'put' me on and what she's...

Back in 2007 I was working an emotionally taxing counseling job, that I loved, but for a shy and introverted, sensitive person it was probably too much. I must have gotten burned out and it was at this time that I first noticed feeling "not...
