Is There Anything Fibro Doesn't Effect?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I'm sure all my constant questions are getting bothersome, I am very sorry, but I am currently in a dark place with all of this. I have no one to talk to. My family just doesn't understand why I can't just take medicine and it makes it all better. My "friends" don't care at all...everything in their lives is so much more important. I am tired of being of being scared, of worrying that I am dying all the time....I'm tired of the pain and strange symptoms. So I guess the easier question, is there… read more

I believe you need to be referred to a pain management doctor! They can prescribe medication to help with the pain. The whole concept of a pain management doctors is to treat your symptoms so you can have a better quality of life.

Sending gentle hugs your way!

Kristen don’t be scared, we are here for you and many of us have had Fibro a long time and will help in any way we can💜. A lot of us get blurred vision, I get it when I have Fibro fog. But you should see eye dr because it could be strictly vision problem. When this first happened, I went to eye dr and my eyes were fine. But because eye vision does change, you should see eye dr. So you’ll know. I understand completely your fear with Fibro, it’s natural. You have to do a lot of research and become your own advocate because Drs don’t know enough about Fibro yet. And because of that, they tend to roll their eyes at us.. you need to find a Rheumotologist, who can help you. Don’t settle for less than one that will LISTEN to you, and care with compassion. You deserve this, we all do! One thing that’s important.. you said that you thought your questions were bothersome to us... that’s completely wrong. Quite the opposite. We all help and support each other, we give each other strength. There is no judgement here. We need each other. We are all always asking questions to each other. And because everyone’s Fibro is different, but with many commonalities, we all benefit from each other. We need you too. Take a deep breath, you are not alone, we are all in this together😊💜. I’m sending you big, gentle, loving hugs, and positive thoughts for strength💜🦋💜, Love Deb

First of all u r not alone. All of us that hav fibro hav a lot of problems from it. I guess the best advice i can give u is listen to ur body, do wat u can on ur good days but DONT over do it on ur good days. Ive learned thru my experiance with having fibro is not to second guess all the symptoms just do the best u can to take care of urself and go with the flow. Its seems like to me the more i fight the symptoms the more problems i hav. Does this make any sense to anyone besides me?!!! Anyways sending healing prayers and lots of hugs. Hang in there and one day at a time.

You are NOT alone. I also have nobody who understands how frightening this is. Your story is almost identical to mine.

MS can affect the vision..and MS has similar symptoms of Fibro.Have you been tested for MS.The give you a MRI and if they see lesions or plaque on the brain.that tells them its MS.Fibromyalgia symptoms mimic MS ..if you see a Rheumatologist they eliminate other chronic illness befor they diagnosis you with Fibromyalgia.
