Yesterday was a reasonably good day a little pain but not unbearable. Today is once again another story. I woke with painful legs and feeling very tired, after a trip to do some shopping I came home in agony again, took some codeine and went to bed and slept. This condition gives me no control...

Hi I just need to moan. Last night was a difficult night sleeping, I was awake more than asleep from pains in my calves and feet. Woke up and thought if I get up and walk around have breakfast it might ease off, it hasn't, it is now 6pm Australian time and it is as bad as at the beginning of...

I'm mostly only making this post because someone I care about told me I should look for more answers. I've only had fibromyalgia for about 4 years, and the first year or so I could still kind of function but it's slowly become worse and worse. For a long time I tirelessly pursued relief and...

Went to the doctor with a long list of pain- arms, shoulders, elbows, wrists, swelling in hands and feet, cold hands- always, daily migraines, severe jaw pain, inability to lose weight, thought I had dementia, never feel rested...the list goes on and on. Have all the symptoms of hypothyroidism...

I was diagnosed a year ago with FM by my general practitioner. At the time I was already on Escitalopram for depression and he prescribed Mobic for the pain. I also have bone on bone OA of both knees. The Mobic has helped my knee pain but for me, the worst pains are the "zings" that happen out...

Male, early 30s, dealing with bilateral hand pain for 2 years. Office desk job. No other illnesses. I'm having a hard time finding a doctor who knows what's going on and WHICH kind of doctor is the right doc for my situation. Two years ago I began experiencing pain in my wrists/thumb/palm/back...

Hello my name is William. I was told Friday by a specialist that he is 99% sure I have FMS. He told me that this will never go away and that I will fight it for the rest of my life. I'm only 20 years old and that was the most devastating news of my entire life. Chronic pain fatigue and memory...

I have chronic pain in most of my joints (but very severe in my neck & lower back) and in the soft tissues or muscles near my joints (both forearms & shoulders, both calves & achilles heals). My first symptom, almost 2 years ago when I was 57, was mainly fatigue. I couldn't understand why I...
