When did you realize that your symptoms were all due to Fibromyalgia?

In addition to chronic pain throughout my body, I am always tired. Sometimes I am so tired that my husband has to help me up the stairs and into bed. Then, every day around 3:00 – give or take a half an hour – I have to try to live with fibro fog. It’s actually what it sounds like. In the late afternoons, it feels like someone has pulled a gauze bag over my head.…

Symptoms can be debilitating and often the patient feels as…

After 27 years of service, decorated U.S. Army Brigadier General Becky Halstead (Retired), the first female West Point graduate in U.S. history to command at the strategic level in Iraq and Afghanistan, decided to retire after being diagnosed with fibromyalgia – a medically unexplained syndrome affecting the muscles and connective tissues.

When you Got Fibromyalgia?

The brief answer is that in 2002 I was 33 and I took up running again after a four-year absence due to a ruptured disk that needed surgery to fix. When I began to run it became a real joy in my life. It was a mind over matter hobby that helped me to discover how far I could push my body and learn to listen to it at the same time. During my running…

As a Fibromyalgia Sufferer Myself, I’ll tell you how it developed in me, As a story form for an easy understanding

About eight years ago, I went to my OB/GYN as I was experiencing some mild fatigue and joint pain. I had had a 20-year career as a dancer and had been diagnosed with osteoarthritis. I was having some anxiety about work and had been through a recent breakup, but we looked at physiological causes anyway and ruled out lupus, RA, and Lyme disease. When my anxiety about an impending merger at work became worse, we…

Genetic Factor in some people that some sort of Trauma or Emotional-sets off or Triggers Fibromyalgia.

I’m not an expert with medical credentials but I can answer as a survivor who’s found her own peace with this crazy illness. It seems there’s a genetic factor in some people that some sort of trauma-physical, mental, or emotional-sets off or triggers fibromyalgia. My fibromyalgia came after a hysterectomy and the following emergency surgery to remove my infected hemorrhaging ovaries. I was on the mend when I started having severe stomach problems (IBS) that…

What are best coping tricks people with Fibromyalgia trying for their hardest symptoms?

Post Exertional Malaise is my most annoying symptom. I had to stop exercising during a flare 4 months ago, and trying to get myself where I can go for a swim again is highly frustrating, because even a 50m swim will use up all my energy for the day, so I need my husband to do everything else for me. Almost impossible to coordinate. Everything else I can mostly sort out on my own. Here…

It sounds like a Different. Are you going to marry this person? Are you already married to such a person? Are you asking on behalf of someone? There are several issues in here, I’ll chop them into physical and mental issues just so I can tackle them separately. Fibromyalgia is a serious illness. The pain goes on and you don’t know why or where. A friend of mine describes it as “you are in pain,…
