    Finding something that works for me and wanted to share.

    I have been a lurker on Fibromyalgia forums for years but I am a pretty private person so I never joined the forums and online support groups because I didn't want people to feel sorry for me. I have finally had some success in treating my health issues and decided it was time to share. a...

    Hello

    Hi all. I'm going to be honest from the get-go: I generally don't like this kind of thing. I'm not ashamed and I'm not a super private person (well to some extent, mostly because I find explaining fibro only illicits pity). But I'm at a loss and I want to get this off of my chest. I'm 32, male...

    Recently Diagnosed

    Hi. I was recently diagnosed with Fibromyalgia (July 18th). I'm mostly just processing at the moment. I'm 21 years old, so it's a long road ahead. I'm trying to remain optimistic about treatment. But it's hard when I can barely make it through my work day. I put so much of my identity into...

    Old but New Diagnosis

    My doctor in 2012 diagnosed me with FMS, but I disbelieved her, buying into the "we'll say that when we can't figure out what's wrong with you" myth. And I lived the next four years as if I were a well person and nearly burned out completely. A new doctor diagnosed me with FMS again and told...

    Gym/Workout

    I just watched a video that was recommended by someone in the forum. It was of someone w/ fibro who appeared to suffer a great deal, but near the end it showed that she was going to the gym! I totally understand the benefits. I have been fortunate enough to experience those benefits before all...
