Hi, I thought maybe it is time for us all to share our embarrassing complaints, mostly to know that we often actually all suffer from the same. It can be fibro-related or not, more or less embarrassing/serious, but let me start off with my list; - vaginal flatulence - I don't know why I suffer...

I am beginning to wonder if I should get medication for depression. I have been pretty seriously depressed for at least two years.....really it is four, but I could call it "Grief" for the first two years, to be accurate. Every morning I wake up wishing I had not woken up. Only my dogs get me...

I have been chronically ill for about twenty years. While I have accepted my limitations, one thing I really...

Really, I just can't take anymore. I am 10 days from my hearing with the judge and I am falling apart. The closer it gets, the further I fall. I can't eat or sleep. I can't concentrate on anything. On top of everything else that is going on my sister in law had a massive heart attack on...

So as most of you know I have a hearing before the ALJ on November 10th. My problem is I am making myself physically sick worrying about it. I am constantly nauseated for which the doctor has given me medication for. I have convinced myself that I am dying. I have been experiencing severe...

Hi So i had a fall at the start of january this year, and begin to get symptoms within the first month. By April i had a tentative diagnosis of fibromyalgia. My doctors horrible, and just keeps upping my meds. I feel irrational and angry most of the time. It seems like no one is listening to...
