Do you have Fibromyalgia

I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.  I actually was diagnosed with this disease 10 years ago while in its early stages, but we didn't know a whole lot about it. Most Drs thought it was all in your head.

I am looking for other people who are suffering with Fibromyalgia to have a support

group on here. It might be helpful to have people talk about their condition and maybe

have some ideas on how to make their day easier to cope with. Someone might also

have some answers that we don't have.

I am going on 49 in November and my Fibromyalgia pain and symptoms have really

flared up in the last year. I have suffered with headaches, chest pains, dizziness,

Fibrofog, neck pain, insomnia, depression, fatigue, achiness and morning stiffness.

I have found some good websites on google explaining the symptoms and some

treatments. I get a massage twice a month and I am on some pain medication,

but so far I am getting no relief.

I do try hard to exercise 30 minutes a day whether it is walking my dogs, walking

on a treadmill or riding an exercise bike... I also try to lay on the floor to stretch

out.

But I would love to get some feedback from anyone who might have some answers

on how to deal with the pain day to day.
