Hi everyone, This isn't actually about a cure or treatment for Fibro but none the less needs to be read by us Fibro persons. This could be the answer to your prayers or at least some of them in many ways! Hi, my name is Ellen and I am a chronic pain suffer. I was diagnosed in 2001 with...

I'm new to the forums and have been reading a bit. I have so many symptoms that no doctors (and I see many) will give me an answer or solution other than medications that will make me sicker. I feel like I'm slowly dying, literally, and I can't for the life of me understand why doctors simply...

Hello! I am brand new here and have been dealing with so many issues over the past few years. A little about me: I am almost 50, dx Hidradenitis Suppurativa, Diabetes T2, Degenerative Disc disease, DOuble sided sciatica, arthritis, and as of Wednesday my Rheumotologist said I have either MS or...

Hi all, I apologize for creating a new post as I thought that I saw a similar one, but I'm freaking out this past week. EVERY time I eat, within 10 minutes my heart is racing, I get internal shakes and feel light headed. Is this my sugar spiking? Could I have diabetes or pancreatic cancer? I...

I hope this is OK to post; I had been on salmeterol xianofoate for off-label use during a clinical trial I had participated in. Towards the end of the trial, I started coming down with myofascial pain and a litany of other health issues that worsened and evolved over the past 8 months; things...

Do you know of someone who has been diagnosed with fibro and diabetes? This is because the two diseases have a correlation. Diabetics are known to suffer from fibro. In addition, they have higher levels of HbA1c indicating poor glucose control. They also have a higher number of tender points...

Hi all. I've lived with fibromyalgia since 2014 (diagnosed) and like since 2010 undiagnosed. I'm a mom to a 10 month old baby. I'm a freelance writer, working about 15 hours a week. And a wife. In my pre-fibro life, I used to be a competitive weightlifting athlete, power-yoga teacher and...
