    Fibromyalgia without typical pain

    I was sure the "do I have this?" questions would be numerous and look there's a whole section for it. My situation is complex and my brain is all foggy and tired but I'm trying to leave the blackout curtain open long enough to cool the room so I will try to get started and probably ramble on...

    Diagnosed Yesterday

    I was diagnosed with FM yesterday by a rheumatologist. This was after months of testing by my GP for the extreme fatigue and brain fog. I chalked the pain up to 'overdoing it' because everything started in April, when I began doing more outside yard work. A friend asked if I had considered the...

    What kind of doctor best for managing Fibromyalgia?

    I'm very new to the diagnosis. Well, somewhat new.. May 2015. I was diagnosed by a rheumatologist, a BAD one, and I'm not sure if I should be seeing a rheumatologist or a neurologist. Which do you all think is best for fibromyalgia symptoms management etc?

    Recent diagnosis & overwhelmed with despair.

    I'm new to the forums and have been reading a bit. I have so many symptoms that no doctors (and I see many) will give me an answer or solution other than medications that will make me sicker. I feel like I'm slowly dying, literally, and I can't for the life of me understand why doctors simply...
