Fibromyalgia Support Group
You're not alone in your pain. Fibromyalgia is a condition that can be difficult to diagnose and manage. If you're trying to cope with pain throughout your body, sleep problems, general fatigue, or other common fibromyalgia symptoms, you're in the right place. The community is here for you to talk about therapies and share your challenges.
I haven't really responded to a lot of the conversations lately because I was so disappointed with all the negative and nasty things that were being said. I have no idea who the people are/were but the majority seemed to want these people to leave the site.
You know, I'm 61 and I still think people are good for the most part but that doesn't mean all people are and I know that. It's just when I found this site and all the information that was shared I was really glad to find a place where I could vent and/or help when needed. It never entered my mind that some emotional predator would be out there just looking for their next victim. Like I said I thought about quiting but then thought why should I leave? We all should keep together and not allow anyone to harm or target someone with abusive words.
It's just so hard to believe that here we are just trying to find a place where people know what we are talking about because we all know most of the world doesn't have a clue, and then we get some freaks trying to hurt people! It was so hard to read all that stuff and after all, don't we all hurt enough?
I just appreciate all of you so much and I'm so glad you all share your feelings. Because you do share I found out I wasn't the only one suddenly sweating from my scalp and face. I kept telling my doctor and she couldn't figure it out and then one day someone asked if anyone else did and there were lots of responses. It made me feel better which isn't really nice to say but I think you all know what I mean!
Thank you all for being here and I will do my part to help keep our little world peaceful and helpful.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
New people come here all the time and we never know who is reading and not posting.
Gentle Hugs to ALL!
I do have supportive friends, hubby and kids but not so much with my extended family. I also found I was in a pain rut. Too tired to even go to the doctor to get meds! (how sad is that???) so I decided to get in and get in and get some tests done. This site gave me that encouragement I needed to go and try an new pain med. So far, so good and feeling better than I have in years.
DO GLAD TO HEAR THAT YOU ARE FEELING BETTER!!! I PUT YOU ON MY PRAYER LIST... THAT IS HOW I OVERCOME THE MAYHEM, I PRAY . I PRAY THAT YOU GET COMFORTAVLE HERE AND STAY WITH US....BLESSINGS...HELEN
I'd just like to say... Thank-you all!!! (now I'm gonna cry...)

Please, don't leave. Think of it this way. There are some people here who are hurtful, but if you leave, they will have won, not to mention we'll have one less good person around. If you stay, you will have shown you have not let them push you away, and the community will have another good member. The more, the better.
So please re-consider. :)
I have been here for awhile, and don't respond alot on the boards, but, I have met so many wonderful people here.
I was like you, I thought I was the only one having problems with my drenched head and face. I found out the same way you did, my wonderful DS family.
It was about to run me crazy because, I couldn't figure out why I was sweating so bad.
Stay with us and we can all sweat together. LOL
Hugs
