The first signs of fibromyalgia came about when I was in college. My arms would be aching after completing blue book tests, and my knees would hurt from climbing stairs all day. I figured this was normal at the time. After about a year or so, however, I found my legs throbbing, my arms...

I am currently on ampitryptiline for pain and sleep - helps me get back to sleep when I do wake up and seems to quiet those tingling sensations. Like many of us I do not want to medicate because of nasty side effects...but I am looking for some help with pain. I am seeing my GP on...

Hello ! I am new here and recently recieved a diagnosis. I am 32 and terrified. About a year ago I noticed my right leg going numb and weak when driving long distances. Since then my right arm and now left arm both have a heavy feeling and muscle fatigue. I have been to a neuro and ra...
