test

I am the mother of a 2 year old son and expecting my 2nd son just after my 23rd birthday in May. I have been dealing with severe pain for many years and just figured everyone had to endure this. I never went to a doctor about it because I honestly can't remember a time when I wasn't in pain. A...

Hi everyone, I'm currently taking a semester off from my university due to what my doctor suspects to be fibromyalgia pains as we just recently ruled out brain structure abnormalities with a CT scan (with and without contrast) and my blood work was normal besides a positive ANA test. I have a...

My insurance finally approved my sleep study. I go tomorrow night. They didn't tell me a whole lot except to wash my hair but not to put conditioner in my hair:-? Which is funny because I have super thick super long hair that is going to be snarled mess if I don't use some conditioner, and to...

I have had symptoms of fibromyalgia for years. 10-15. It crept up on me slowly. First was the fatigue, but I had just had a baby so they ran a bunch a blood test to see if my hormones were out of wack, etc nothing showed up so they just told me I needed to let my body recover. I also...

Hi, new here. I have been reading posts here. Seems to be a constant thread, pain, Doctors and no one understands. Which is all true. I get dismissed by everyone family friends, medical, work. I didn't ask for this, Had a back injury at work that I just couldn't get a handle on , I was sent to...

This having fibro really really sucks. I am now trying to find a new doctor to treat me. The neurologist that has been treating me for the past 3 years apparently doesn't want me as a patient anymore. He didn't say as much but when I saw him over 2 weeks ago he really gave me the impression...

I just need to vent a bit, guys. Right now there is a big chance I might be pregnant, I took a home preg test and it showed a faint line. I was going to the lab today get a more reliable test (blood one), but I couldn't so will have to wait until tomorrow! The waiting is killing me and my...

Hello, I'll try to keep this brief. But I am a 23 y/o male that came down with debilitating symptoms last year in September after living a totally healthy lifestyle and exercising often. My illness definitely felt like an "attack" of some sort. Let me know if anyone can relate to this or if it...

So after a few failed attempts to see different Rheumatologists I finally found one willing to see me. He took the time to really listen to everything I had going on and all of the appointments I've already had. He asked a ton of questions and actually listened to the answers. I was in his...
