energy

I am a newbie, and I have never been so frustrated in all of my 50 years of life. In 2014 I was rear ended by a company truck, at that time I started with neck pain and headaches. I dealt with the pain was x rayed, had MRI's no problems, soon after the burning started in my shoulders, the neck...

Hi everyone 😁 saying hi as new to this group and although I've been suffering on and off for years I've just moved house and a new doctor has diagnosed fibromylalgia and possibly cfs 😣. For the last few years I've felt like people think I'm hyperchondriac 😢 most days complaining of some...

I have read so many threads and can relate to so much. It is apparent that we all have so much in common yet our experiences can be so personal. It is great to have such a forum, if not to seek out help but to know that we are not alone in our daily struggles. I wish everyone could have a...

Hello, my name is Katie, and this is my first time on a support site for Fibromyalgia. I think I have hit the wall on talking, explaining, and generally wining about my Fibromyalgia to friends and family. They seem to just now change the subject and are not interested in hearing me anymore...

Hello. I was diagnosed last Wed by a rheumatologist. I have been diagnosed with Lyme disease, Lupus, MS, AS etc. Until I finally was able to see the rhuemy. It is a relief as this diseases' prognosis is not as debilitating as some of the choices. And I finally feel like maybe I can start to...

This is so frustrating for me and it's probably hindering my ability to get well. Whenever I go to a doctors appointment just getting there and waiting and sitting up (spinal disks are slipping) drains my mind to the point where I can't even remember the points I wanted to discuss. I'm usually...
