    Fibromyalgia is Kicking My Butt Right Now

    Hi everybody, I am new to this group. I am in so much pain right now because of a pulled shoulder muscle. I got a new job and this is probably what did it. I want to scream, to cry, to hit things with pillows but it hurts. So my muscle relaxer wear off and finally I am not depressed anymore...

    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...

    Eight Years of Pain

    Hi there! I'm 41 years old and have lived with Fibromyalgia for 8 years. Does it deserve a captial F? I feel a bit shamed for not joining a forum until today. If I'd have listened to Mom, I would have joined years ago. I came for a commonality, as well as different aspects, advice and to...

    Housework!

    I'm new here

    Hi! My name is Linda and I was given a fibro diagnosis at the beginning of May. I believe this is something I've been dealing with for awhile though (as I'm sure it is for most people that finally get the diagnosis). For me, getting the diagnosis was a big relief. I certainly wasn't looking to...

    Extreme pain in hands & feet?

    Hello, I am relatively newly diagnosed with fibro (3 months ago). For me it seems like I've been struggling with the pain and degeneration for more than 6 years. My father's name for it is "the creeping crud." I wonder if others have the same trouble I do with the pain in your hands and feet...

    Hello - new today

    Hello, I've just joined this site and I'm very excited about being able to talk to people who can empathise rather than sympathise. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia/CFS/Neuropathy in my legs from my feet to my hips and in my arms from my fingertips to my shoulders aprrox 6 - 7 years ago. I've...
