Cold Sores
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Several weeks ago I was put on Lamictal for my seizure activity. I broke out with a bunch of cold sores. My daughter was sick and I lost allot of sleep so I thought it was just from being run down.

Then I had white sores all over my tongue and throat. Felt feverish. No fever.

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone know if you get free dental treatment whilst on ESA . I was on contribution based and had to hand sick notes in . I had an interview / meeting at the job centre and was then sent a letter saying I didn't need to send sick notes .

When I was on contribution based I didn't get any help with my dental ,eyes test and so on . Thanks in advance xxxx

Breast Reduction With Fibro
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

A little off topic, but not really! Let's just be blunt: I have huge boobs. lol Soooo...I have a LOT of neck and shoulder pain. My shoulders roll in, it's hard to stand up straight (I'm going to be a hunchback by age 45 lol)
Last year I requested surgery and my insurance denied me. They wouldn't tell me their reasons, but I was stumped because the plastic surgeon I saw said I had more than enough breast tissue to take out to qualify. After doing my research, I lost 30 pounds (I'll lose 50… read more
