At first my doctor thought I had anxiety, but a few months went by and the pain/aching has set in. He did a tender point test and some places didn't bother me but he barely pressed down. Other spots felt like sore/tender muscles. He did bloodwork, testing for a long list of things and it all...
Hi everyone!
I'm new here, and only very recently diagnosed with FM (and a few other things), two days ago. I've been in and out of hospitals and medical centres for the last 18 months, and despite finally having a diagnosis, I'm still having multiple scans and tests.
I've been having issues...
Hi ,
I'm not sure whether to be happy or discouraged. I was told by my disability lawyer that he read thru my medical records file and he did not see a diagnosis for Fibromyalgia. Furthermore, I went to my sleep doctor today and she said that my diagnoses are Chronic Pain Disorder or maybe...
I'm new to all this kind of thing but my doctor thought it might be a good idea. So many people think just because I am young (44) and a man that I should be fine and have no problem getting around or have any pain. But they are wrong. I wish that was true. I have been diagnosed with...
Hi all! I just got diagnosed with Fibromyalgia today, but I've known I have it for a couple months now. It just made sense, with all the vague stupid symptoms I've had for 15 years now... The doctor finally agreed with me today, after I told him EVERYTHING, gave him a list of my symptoms and...
I have been in a limbo the past few months with my health. It all started around August when I developed an eye twitch. I googled it and was determined I had a serious illness. Once I read about certain diseases (MS, particularly) I was positive that was what was wrong with me and started having...

My pain started with both ankles aching and "burning" in January and a few days later my thighs ached liked I had done a workout yet I hadn't. I hadn't been on the treadmill because I thought that is what caused my ankle problems. Then I started with the tingling and numbing sensations in my...
I was diagnosed 13 months ago but instead of accepting that diagnosis I have spent the last year seeing specialist after specialist trying to find out what is really wrong with me. Guess What? After 1 year and countless appointments and dollars spent. I HAVE FIBROMYALGIA, CHRONIC PAIN, AND CFS...
