Thread 'Fibro flare after very mild Covid case'

Hello. I'm new to this forum but not new to fibro. My symptoms started back in the 1990s after a struggle with Lyme, and a concurrent virus (flare up of CMV)and a very stressful move. Have dealt with Fibro symptoms, on and off, ever since. I take pregablin which is pretty useful. It's really been pretty good over the last few years- we moved two years ago and it flared up a bit, but has been good in the warm weather UNTIL I got my first case of Covid a month ago. I took Paxlovid( and was...

Thread 'New member 36F'

Hi, I was diagnosed in August of this year, after years of many many symptoms and countless GP appointments. The same GP kept telling me there was nothing wrong but no one knows their body better than themselves (am I right) so long story short I changed my GP and he finally heard me! He had time to sit and listen to me drone on and on about my pain etc and the appointment got a little emotional on my part, the 'finally!' feeling swept over me. I do feel I have to play down my symptoms...

Hi I am new on here. I finally got diagnosed about 6 months ago with little help from the doctors so I don’t enjoy having to go to them for help.

Thread 'Is it me or is it Fibro speaking?'

Hi everyone, I'm Anaya, I've was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia when I turned 40 a few years ago and have been in denial for most of it. I have had to deal with 20 years of being in a marriage of convenience and I blame my condition on that, my upbringing, and generally being a people pleaser. I am very hard on myself and people around me depend on me, they don't like seeing me weak and I hate myself becoming the opposite of who I was. I often wonder, is it the pain and depression that...

Thread 'Staggering after fairly strenuous work in garden'

Just wondered if anyone else has experienced episodes of staggering Basically started staggering an hour or so after working in garden, and was still unsteady the next morning before eventually eased.

I was diagnosed with fibro six years ago and this is the first time my body has reacted in this way following fairly moderate physical activity. Just not sure if...

Thread 'Hello'

I am new here. Lived with Fibro now almost 30 years. Dxed in 1995. I am not on any medications. I do take Benedryl at night, to keep away the allergies, but it also helps with sleep. Mainly allergies though! There are some things that I have become more curious about of late. I hope to find some answers here, from other FMers that share their experiences. I will go more into those curiosities, on the other forums. Thank you for being here.
