Fibromyalgia Support Group

Welcome Kris, ditto one all of the entries. There is a lot of information here and it's a great place to vent if you are frustrated. I hope you can find what you are looking for here. We have lots to share and we all support anything and everything you are going through.

Hang in there and welcome.

Welcome to this amazing group! We can all relate to what you are going through. I don't take any medication just because I am afraid of becoming dependent. I would suggest hot baths, massages, exercise and a healthy diet and nap when you feel the need to do so. I know that sometimes exercise can be very hard for some of us, but I must say, it really helps me. I would suggest to start off doing very little and work your way up to whatever is comfortable for you, being careful not to over do it. I am going to start trying yoga, I heard it is really good for you and no impact on the joint...which is great. Anyway, you will get lots of love and support here so WELCOME!! HUGS TO YOU!!

Ty I will bring this to my doctor

I have been very fatigued the last few days. My sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and I have been trying very hard to push through the fibro to support her. I spent the entire day at the surgical center while the doc was getting the carcinoma he could not get the first time around.I am really close to my sister and I worry so much about her.

As far as medications the doc in Boston had me try gabapentin again. It is odd because the first time I was on it I was taking high doses with no effect. I am on a low dosage and have several symptoms I didn't before.
