My current doctor, although he gave me the diagnosis, does not believe in it or help in any way. I need a new medical doctor who believes in fibromyalgia and me. My neurologist is wonderful, but not my regular doctor.
Check out to see if you can go to a pain clinic. They deal with this condition quite often and can help you with certain meds that your primary can't prescribe regularly. They can also send you to… read more

Don't think its related to fibromyalgia but always get amazing advice here.
Has anyone had or got nasal polyps? Did you find anything that helped?

Well I went into hospital for a Hysterectomy because I was already prescribed Endone the doctors wouldn’t allow me pain killers after surgery cause they seem to believe I was addicted to them
Anyways the nurses argued with me in the Recovery Room that I had given myself Endone just before surgery ( incorrect) so I wasn’t allowed to have anymore
I just had a huge fibroid taken out the size of a kids football 🏈 and stressed that I may have cancer then I had a Hysterectomy. So still very raw my… read more
Sending you big hugs!!
I am just wondering if anyone can please let me know what they do to try and get rid of their extreme fatigue that comes with their Fibro? I have tried so many different supplements and they are not really working and unfortunately at the moment I am in way too much pain to exercise, especially from also recovering from a recent Hernia Repair operation.
Nothing has worked for my fatigue, but least I found something which helps with my pain and stiffness. I tried sleeping tablets to get a good night sleep, but has terrible side effects and… read more
Every single friend and family member has dropped off. I have nobody who understands what I am going through at all so I get a lot of rejection and criticism.
I find the best way is to say nothing about it. People have their own problems. Keep interested in What is going on around you, read papers, watch the news, keep up to date on currents issues… read more
I take peppermint oil mixed with flaxseed oil and ginger
My fibro specialist and GP want to start me on Lyrica due to my nerves firing like crazy everywhere constantly. Has anyone ever taken this? Did you find relief from it? I'm very skeptical when it comes to taking synthetic drugs (they don't mesh well with my body). I'm nervous to try this but if any of you have found it helpful or not I would love to hear your experiences!
Thank you :)

I just discovered this video on brain inflammation by a researcher and he discovered that brains with ME/CFS has a higher temperature (hotter than a normal brain (that's not ok)) because of elevated activity due to inflammation which can't be cooled off by circulating blood. The brains have elevated levels of lactate (a secondary energy source) instead of oxygen and glucose and discusses why we feel sick, antisocial, isolated, cognitive issues, etc.
Quote; "elevated lactate in the singulate!"
