Has Anyone Heard Of Or Have Durcum's Disease As It's Related To Fibromyalgia?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I was reading articles last night, because I couldn't sleep, in which they all said… read more

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

They also affect my eyes. Light also pulsates. Anyone else?

A MyFibroTeam Member

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

The conditions that affect my ability to work include fibromyalgia, an unspecified connective tissue disorder (suspected hEDS), anxiety, and ADHD. I lost my dream job last year.

I need to find work ASAP, as I ran out of time to either improve my conditions or get on disability before re-entering the work… read more
