    A lot to learn- where do you start??

    Hi. I am so happy to have found this site! I was diagnoses with FM several years ago, but was not given ANY information whatsoever. So I try to learn as I go.

    When I sit for a MINUTE OR TWO it feels like my nerves get compressed and the sensation in my buttocks and legs changes. I get the same feeling in my shoulder blades when I try to lie on my sides. This started several months ago. The neurologist checked me out but I haven't had a recent MRI yet...
