Members responded to the question of whether fibromyalgia can progressively get worse with a strong and shared consensus that yes, it can, based on their own long-term experiences. Several members described worsening symptoms over many years, with stress, anxiety, poor sleep, weather changes, and hormonal shifts like menopause all playing a role in flares. A recurring theme was the emotional weight of living with an unpredictable condition, met with warm encouragement, gentle solidarity, and practical notes about supplements and disability support.
