I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia around a year ago. This was a decade in the making. I had been going to a chiropractor as a teenager. I find myself in bed all day, in pain and overwhelmingly fatigued, and I have too busy a life for this. I am finding that I need to vent my frustrations with...
New to the forum. Thanks for all the amazing information. I want to cry knowing I'm not alone (okay I am actually tearing up - stupid emotions).
So, I've been 'dealing' with all of my 'issues' for most of my life. I've actually had issues since I was a small child. My mother did what she...

Hi! I've been suffering from fibromyalgia/CFS for over a year now. I seemed to have gotten it fairly suddenly, after a flu like illness - and I ended up losing my job due to the restrictions it puts on my life. Until recently, I had tried to remain hopeful and kept thinking, somehow, I would...

Hello,
I was diagnosed with FM in June 2013 after a long battle with trying to figure out what was wrong. I had back surgeries in 2006 and 2008. I felt much better for a while. Then the pain was increasing again and spreading around. Parts that never used to hurt started hurting. I thought I...
Hi,
I decided to join this forum to find like minded people to vent with occasionally and possibly explore ideas of how to cope with this insidious illness.
I call this an insidious illness because most people (even professionals) don't even recognize it as an illness. Officially it's only a...
Hello,
This is my first time here. I have just registered. I feel the need to vent. Anyone I talk to gives me advice. Right now I just want someone to listen. I don't want pity. I don't want sadness, just a listening ear.
Sometimes it seems like I may be lazy or that I give up. I am having such...
I need to vent.....I was having a conversation with my husband yesterday about fibromyalgia and still trying to accept my diagnosis when he said its not like you have cancer. That sentence just keeps replaying in my head. Obviously it's not like accepting I have cancer but it's not like I have a...
