I was diagnosed with fibro in February 2015. I was also diagnosed with severe anxiety and a couple other things. I currently take Cymbalta 90mg, Flexeril 10mg, Mobic 15mg, and Ambian 10mg. Ambian does not in any way help me sleep. My panic attacks and constant body pain keep me awake no matter...

Hello everyone. Am I the only one waking up every morning with an extreme headache accompanied by tender neck pain? The vertebrate right where my neck meets my shoulders hurts so bad on each side. I wake up and I can already feel the pinch in my muscle around that vertabrate which gives me an...

Thanks for the info. I knew the disability process took awhile, but I had no idea it could take that long. How long did it take for your doctor to refer you to a rheumatologist? I have already done some light research and somehow I did not think about looking up how it works in my specific...

CatherineTheGrear, thank god I am not the only one. I have been going to the doctor regularly since January of this year. I have been put on multiple anti-depression medications that make me feel crazy yet my doctor refuses to refer to a pain clinic that might find one medication that will...

I am going crazy. I am only 20 years old and it is hard having fibro for many more reasons than just pain. I am never taken seriously when I say I am to exhausted to work even a 25 hour week. When I say I am in pain I always get a response like "Oh, you're young you will be okay." Also because...

I work in a warehouse and i carry heavy damaged product and walk around all day. I am still in horrible pain. Finally my boss stopped me from using a manual jack to pull around a pallet of heavy product. Now i only carry one by one, but I am still hurting. My doctor keeps putting me on...

I am currently having major problems with my job. I am going through the worst pain I have ever felt. I am constantly exhausted and have no energy. I feel like my job is doing nothing but making me worse. I can not afford to quit or start over somewhere new, but sometimes I feel like I can't...
