    overwhelmed

    Hello everyone. !st I want to say I really appreciate having this place to come to where people actually understand what it is like to have fibro. NO ONE in my family has a clue or has ever shown any interest in trying to understand. I have had this for many many years. The last year of...

    Hi everyone!

    I am new here. I was diagnosed with fibro quite a few years ago. I was in an accident back when I was in high school (decades ago) where I was riding a bike and got hit by a car, and that is what started it all. I have been through the gamut of trying different ways to "heal." The only thing...
