Welcome! I think a lot of us are in the same boat. It's really hard to get others to understand what's going on with us. I have had others who also make me feel as though they think I am just making things up. Well, all of us know this is REAL and NO joke!! So, you will find a lot of support here.

Here we all understand the hurt, the pains, the lack of understanding that the "normal" people don't have. We are all helping and yes, even laughing together so we can better each others lives. Jean

I just joined just a couple of weeks ago but I was diagnosed about 17 years ago with Fibro. And I will tell you that this is best thing that ever came around. I have made more friends and had so much comfort from fellow members that even when my bad days are extreme there is someone here that understands what I am going through. I also have not laughed so much in a very long time. And they say that laughter is the best medicine. I hope that you find all the comfort, friends and laughter that I have found here.

very gentle hugs

Welcome to the best support group you will ever find! I too have very little family support. My kids are great by my mom is tired of hearing about Fibro this or Fibro that. I was recently diagnosed and I am doing a lot of research. It is not that I am complaining ... except for now.

Anway, you are in the right place because when you are having a bad day, one of us who is having an okay day, will be here to lift you up. If one of us is having a bad day, it might be you that makes all the difference.

We laugh here and we cry here. Sometimes member don’t sign on for weeks but when they come back, it is as if they never left.

I hope you find what you need here. We all are living our lives with FM so never be afraid to vent or ask ANY question you may have.

HUGS!

We made up FM car magnet ribbons as a group. They are really nice. I have some extra at cost. They are $1.50 if you want one, just PM me. Thanks!
