Hi everyone. I'm new to this group but not new to Fibromyalgia. I was diagnosed approximately 10 yrs ago but I have struggled with this illness for many years. i was a social worker for many years and the stress often gave me very bad headache, carpel tunnel and all over pain. Now I have a dog grooming business and the pain is in my shoulders, hands, feet and back. But the stress is greatly reduces so I have very few headaches. As I'm getting older I'm starting to see other symptoms appear. Dry eye, sensitivity to noice and bright lights and the most annoying is Fibro Fog!!!! Just started having that in the last 2 years. There is no one else I know who has this and there is very little understanding of it by the people around me, which is frustrating and lonely. I'm hoping to get support and learn coping skills and treatment as a member of this group.
