Looking for an insight from those of you suffer with this.... I didnt mean to but I do find it difficult sometimes. Im sure you're all aware of this no-one can see how bad you are. No excuses but I've been working long hours this week and am really tired. Stupidly I made a comment that it was...

Hello, I'm just looking for a good support group! People that understand what I'm going through! Feeling ALONE!! Thanks

Hi, I'm Nicole. I was diagnosed on the 18th of July with Fibromyalgia, and have since been gathering up information and looking for support groups. I'm 21, and love table topping and LARPing. I'm so far optimistic about managing it, but information and support is always good.

Hello everyone! I was diagnosed last week with fibromyalgia. I am 56 years old and have been looking for answers for 12 years, however, I'm still not sure if this is what I really have. Kinda felt like the rheumatologist didn't know what to do with me. I'm trying to learn about fibro and see if...

Hey everyone I'm Los. Been struggling with fibromyalgia for over 2 years now. New to this and any forum, and im only here because I Gabe no other place that can understand what I'm going through. Everyday I wake up just hoping I can get through my horrible agonizing life and not lose my job or...
