Hi!
I am not officially diagnosed yet but most likely will be next week. The Rheumatologist wanted to run one more round of blood work to rule out auto immune disorder but he talked a lot about Fibro and sent me home with a list of legit websites to get more info so pretty sure he is...
Hello Friends,
I am a 65 year old female retired public school teacher. I had to retire in 1997 when I was diagnosised with FM. I had taught second grade 5 years and first grade 23 years. I enjoyed teaching and grieved very much when I had to retire at the age of 50. I was in an inner city...

So, just got back to work from the Doc's office. Hubby went with me to my appointment and the Doc and I were discussing my medications and he started to discuss the possibility of a couple of medications that had addictive qualities and I told him I would prefer to use those medications as a...
Hello fellow sufferers of Fibro...
I was finally diagnosed with fibromyalgia last week, and I am just looking for some direction. My pain began last October. It all started in my right pinky finger and spread from there. I have now been dealing with chronic widespread pain for about 9 months. I...

Every now and then, when we're working hard, we hurt our back. It might be from moving a piece of furniture and lifting it incorrectly, or from too much yard work. Often this pain in your back is muscular. While this can often be a painful situation, you should know that it isn't nearly as...

Hello I am a 28 year old male and just a couple weeks ago I was diagnosed with Fibromayalgia by a Rhuematologist at UCLA. To summarize my situation: I hurt my shoulder at the gym 8 years ago. Nothing helped (Conservative treatment, Physical Therapy, Cortisone, Surgery). As time went on I went...
Hi all,
So glad to have support. I have been reading and I am thankful for this forum.
I've been feeling crappy for roughly two years. It first came in the form of major digestion issues - I'd burp all the time and got no relief... just burp, burp, burp. I had seen many docs with regard to...

I wonder how many diagnoses or which diagnosis would apply to qualify for SSI or disability. I have been diagnosed with CFS, had interim treatment for Lupus but then received the diagnosis of Fibromyalgia, and now have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. I'm not sure where to begin or...
Hi All, New to the group. I have just moved to Boston in hopes to find better treatment for my FM. I am now out of work, living with family and unable to care for myself. None of the drs I have are helping me in the least. I am constantly in excruciating pain as well as fatigued beyond belief. I...
