Hi, I’m new in here and Fibro as well. RA 2y but still new. I might not be able to help but I’m here.

Hi I have fibromyalgia. Pretty new here myself.

Hi there, I have been diagnosed for years now with fibro among other thing. Here if you need to talk x

It's so nice to talk to people that understand the daily grog. My husband and family don't get it. Ive been having a very bad week. With pain, depression and I feel so alone x

Hi. I have been diagnosed a year now and it has been a rollercoaster with my family. It's really hard for anyone to understand an illness they can't see. They're so used to the way you used to be. It takes time and you repeatedly sticking up for yourself. Good luck

I have been diagnosed over 20 yrs. My new Dr said my teenage years sound like I had it around 15.

I've had fibro for 17 years. it has completely altered my life. my first marriage fell apart because of it. I've never had anything before that be so destructive. I gave up at the beginning. Now I run a community on Amino for people with behavioral, emotional, mental and physical disabilities. It's geared towards people with several disease processes going on. Chronic illness warriors are our specialty. Hugs and spoons 🥰🥰🤗🤗🥄🥄😘😘

Have suspected Fibro, waiting on Dx. Finding a balance has been a journey. My lifestyle is certainly much slower than it was pre-fibro, but honestly it's the wake up I needed to slow down and enjoy the small things in life. I appreciate every little thing my family do for me more than ever, and when I have my good days I go out of my way to repay them and show my appreciation. I try to go out and do things when I'm having better days, but I've discovered other hobbies that take less energy for bad days, like clay modelling and gamebooks. It was hard at the beginning with the acceptance and learning to live life differently, but as time goes on I've learned to adapt and enjoy the good moments much more. Feel free to reach out if you need to talk or want any advice :)

Hi. I was only diagnosed in august with fibro but my drs think i have had it since i was a teenager. I am 38 and a single mum. The uk drs are really behind compared to the US in fibro recognition. As a nurse my lifestyle is awful and i feel like my boss doesnt believe its a condition. I have felt alone since the diagnosis and just been told i need to see a psychologist to help me change my way of life. Has anyone had any results from this type of treatment?

Hi I'm also new to this group and have fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis of the spine and cervical myelopathy. I'm practically at home every day. Thank goodness I have my cats, a great comfort.
