    recently diagnosed

    Hello everyone. This has been a scary past 6 months for me. I had no idea what was going on, and just was confused and frightened. After about 3 months of hearing my symptoms my doctor told me what he thought was going on, after ruling out other things with tests. Fibromyalgia symptoms hit...

    medicaid issues and looking for alternatives or advice...

    I'm in the very beginning stages from being diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I am still trying to figure out a lot of things and one of them is medicine. So far, medicaid will not pay for any of the meds my doctor would prefer to start me out with; Lyrica, Cymbalta, and Savella, have all been...

    What age were you diagnosed?

    I don't know if this has been asked or not, but I'm just curious as to what age everyone was diagnosed? I was diagnosed when I was 32 years old. I was told by my Doctor that symptoms and onset generally started when someone was in "early middle age". I'm just curious if this is a common theme...

    How about sleeping to ease pain?

    They say migraine is hereditary and that is why I did not question anymore why I have it. I am a witness on how my mom suffered from it. I got it because of her. Over the years, i have been taking pain relievers to kill the pain, but now that I am more mature and always think of what the...
