Hi to all , I'm new here and have had fibro since 2007 and have been through the disability process more than once . I'm feeling very angry and let down by my Doctor of 3+ years now . She has informed me that she can no longer keep up with my disability paperwork and suggest I find a disability...
Hello-- I've been totally in denial about Fibromyalgia but I finally realized that this an unpredictable annoying illness. It's so frustrating to even explained to people because of the internal pain. I simply sometimes just say that it feels like the "Flu" without the runny nose. It's hard...
Glad to have found this group. It's calming knowing that the ones here don't judge. I've had this dreadful monster since 1994....way too long. Although back then we didn't know it was fibro. Also have degenerative disks in my lumbar area and cervical area - and arthritis - not sure if it's...

Hello there, I'm Ray. I'm a 17 year old transgender guy currently in the process of being diagnosed with CFS/FMS. I also have depression, anxiety, PTSD, and BPD (in remission now). I want to get my counseling degree to help other LGBT people, especially kids. My symptoms really interfere with my...
Need a little support. Going tomorrow to find out what my "treatment plan" is going to be. Even though I was "officially" diagnosed with Fibro 3 weeks ago, I have lived with it since at least 2005 or before. After research, I think I have had it since I was a kid. Although I have been praying...
