sleep

Joined tonight, with a sigh of relief to have found this group. Hoping tomorrow is better, less isolated feeling. Exhausted but can not sleep, so going to read posts. Talk with you all soon.

Hi everyone:) I was just diagnosed today with Fibro. The main problem I have is the most extreme fatigue you can imagine, no matter how much sleep or rest I get. I find myself becoming so depressed because I can't function normally" that I just don't care about anything that used to matter to...

Hi. I'm new here and trying to find some clue as to what's going on with me. I've been having symptoms for about a year. The first one was numbness in my right foot that lasted about a week. A few months later, the numbness/tingling started again in that foot, then spread to the other foot and...

Hi there, The fog, the fatigue, it is a constant in my life and it is causing me a lot of problems. I feel like I haven't truly been awake in years, regardless of how much sleep I get. I drink coffee and take Vitamin B but it isn't enough. I want to start exercising but I am so incredibly...

Hello everyone - I’ve just been recently diagnosed, but have known for several years that I probably had fibro. My mom has it and was disabled because of it and she had seen symptoms developing in me. At her request, I went to see a doctor about it and he was none too happy that I was telling...

Fibromyalgia is one of the most misdiagnosed diseases due to symptom overlap. For instance, widespread pain can be caused by sleep apnea, malignancy, hypothyroidism or lupus which cause fatigue. Doctors need to rule out the symptoms of other diseases as they look for an explanation. A patient...

For the sleep issues with fibromyalgia i have been using tea mostly Lavender & Chamomile. It helps me get to sleep. It doesn't really help with the quality of sleep just to get to sleep. For my times of extreme fatigue i have been using small amounts of nicotine, I quit smoking cigarettes and...
