weakness

I'm still worried all these symptoms came from that period in my life where I was a vegetarian and might have suffered B12 problems. I took supplements but not the sublingual. My mother was diagnosed with severe B-12 deficiency causing psychotic episodes and weakness. I went away slowly with...

Does anyone's joint and weakness extend to the hand and fingers?? I'm noticing a weak grip with both hands. I'm 45 female and was always on the stronger side, but not so much anymore. Wondering what others experience. Seems lately when I research a symptom, ALS comes up and it sends me in a...

This is so frustrating for me and it's probably hindering my ability to get well. Whenever I go to a doctors appointment just getting there and waiting and sitting up (spinal disks are slipping) drains my mind to the point where I can't even remember the points I wanted to discuss. I'm usually...

Hello everyone I'm new. I was diagnosed with fibro a few years ago but have been sick for over 10 yrs I'm 37. How bad do your pain get? The second I wake up I start crying and screaming. The meds help a little but I'm terrified that the pain is getting worse and the pain meds won't cover it. It...

Anyone else had a long period of inactivity just sitting or in bed due to fibro for months on end and found a way to rebuild muscles. I cant do much as the pain is still very bad and walk circuits round my living area for 5 or 10 minutes when i can. I can't believe how much muscle strength i...

Hello all ! :razz: Here is my introduction... I was first diagnosed in 1999 by a rheumatologist. Then it went away, and my PCP at that time said if it went away it's not FM Then around +2007 a much worse pain and fatigue would come in cycles or waves. Then by 2010 I had huge pain like I...

One of the most frustrating parts of my Fibro is my sudden inability to carry stuff or get up the stairs. Even going down the stairs makes my legs start to shake. I used to be able to carry stuff with the best of them, and now I can barely carry a suitcase down the stairs. I can't seem to hold...

Firstly let me say thankyou for providing such a supportive and informative site. This is the best one I have found so far. My journey with Fibro has been a bit of an unusual one. Having 2 bouts of Ross River Virus left me with CFS which I had thought to have managed reasonably well. However...
