New person

I hav had pains since i can remember, 3 maybe, just in my legs. When i was 12 or so my arms started to get sore, then my wrists. Then 16 my back started to give me grief. I was 18 when they finally told me i had Fibromyalgia, i had been going to the doctor for 10 years. My shoulders and my neck have gotten sore since then. Bad headaches, tummy problems, swelling in hands and feet, sencitive to light and sound, tired all the time, really depressed. No energy. Lack concentration

Just wanting to no if this is "normal". Having it from a young age and the symtoms worsening??

Also what other thing i hav to look foward to.

Thanx

Sorry about my bad spelling

I feel like my symptoms are getting worse. they say fibro is not progressive, not sure I agree with that. I'm on Cymbalta for the muscle cramps and I think after awhile my body is building up an immunity to it and I don't get the same relief level that I used to.

I don't know, someone will come along who has a better answer.

Fibromyalgia is not an invisible diease, I'm right here!

As far as being progressive - I'm sorry sweetheart, I firmly believe that it is. And since I was "officially" diagnosed about 8 years ago I know now I have had it since I gave birth in 1981. And now that we know what the symptoms are - we now know that our daughter has had it since she was about 21, she is now 27 and we have seen her progress also. But everyone is different. sorry to be a downer ---but at least you're still young and they finally have a name for what the rest of us old timers was told it was just all in our minds. Hope you have a great weekend. Again, welcome

this is a great place to come for people that understand what you are going through........

I hope that you will make yourself at home and just start posting.... tell us about yourself and your day.......

Again ...welcome to the group/family.
