    Thanks for letting me join! I'm 39. I was diagnosed in March '17. I am coming up on my 15th year in the military. I just found out I am going through the MED Board process. Looking for advice, treatment options and somewhere to research more about Fibro.

    I suddenly feel so old...hello, everyone, new 'club' member here.

    Hello, everyone!! Well, so here I am. After going through all the stages of "grief", I'm finally at the acceptance stage: I have fibro, and ignoring it for several years hasn't worked to dispel it. Long story short: our doctor diagnosed me several years ago, but I've always "carried on" like I...

    Hello

    Hi, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2010 when I started having headaches every day. When the doctor told me my diagnosis I was hesitate to believe him, I thought he just didn't know what was wrong with me. I had never heard of fibromyalgia before. I took lyrica for about 6 months and it...

    It can become exhausting or it can be rewarding when you try different things.

    I have found out the hard way and so has the people who I care for that it is exhausting on the mind as well as the wallet when you hear that a supplement can possibly help and you go out and buy it then use it for some time and it yields no results.
