death

Hi everyone...this is my second post on a similar subject but wasn't sure if I should continue with the same thread or start a new one... I was approved for disability about 2 months ago, and have been off work from my fibro/CFS for the past 8 months. It took me a very long time to make the...

Hello. I feel a little strange writing this post, as I know I’m not the only one who reads forums about fibro. Still, I really need your help. This post is long, and very personal. My questions are at the end. My girlfriend of three years was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia/chronic...

Hi everyone. I am new to the group, please be gentle with me! I have had Fibro and CFS for many years after picking up a nasty virus on holiday abroad. I have had a rather stressful life, having been raised by an abusive narcissistic mother and suffering well into adulthood. We all know how...

I have been going through something weird lately. I don't know why, but I am scared to death of everything. I am afraid to walk outside. Sometimes I am scared to death when in a car.

I don't really know how to begin telling you my story, but to say that it was just a total nightmare; I really believe at this time that if my God had not made this work better for me, I would not still be alive at this time! It all started because of my being an idiotic child in the 7th grade...

Good morning! I am excited to be here! Like you, I am a fibromyalgia suffer x 6 years. I hope to contribute a lot to this forum, being a fellow sufferer! Thank you for reading! Angie

I am sick to death of being treated like an idiot who does not have 2 brain cells to rub together and who should not try to involve themselves with adult conversation. My OH is technical geek - but I have since having fibro taught myself a fair amount about web design and programming and I have...

I have a 39-yo sister who has fibromyalgia. She was diagnosed a year ago. I love her to death though most of the time she drives me nuts! Every single day, she complains about her pain, how she fell asleep on her job, etc...and she gets irritated at me when she's in pain, has a headache because...
