Cappie:

You're right. Just not feeling right even if it's not sick-sick is the worst. I've spent years feeling 'weird' before the fibro got really bad.

My brain fog and cognitive dysfunction was what I always sought treatment for and is why it took sooooo long to be diagnosed.

Windy715 have you thought of taping your conversation when you go out. If you haven't said personal things in public in the past, why would it be happening now? Maybe ask the other people if you said inappropriate things. With me I forget what I just said but I don't think I say things I wouldn't normally say.

My worst fibro symptom is ALL of them that keep me from a life I used to live !!!!

between being tired all the time sore throat sinus infection ,i believe got chronic fatigue syndromme too,hurting everywhere

My worst is going to bed exhausted and waking up twice as exhausted. Being up all night with insomnia and RLS. The worst of All for me....explaining this to doctors and they tell me it's because I am depressed and too fat.

I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THIS UNRELENTING PAIN OF SCIATICA NO DOUBT CAUSED BY TIGHT MUSCLES IMPINGING ON THE NERVE. I HAVE BEEN UNDER "ATACK" FOR OVER TWO WEEKS NOW WITH NO END IN SIGHT. MY OTHER ACHES AND PAINS FROM THE FIBRO PALE IN COMPARISON. BETTER DAYS TO EVERYONE.

Stomach pain will stop me in my tracks. It's one pain that I can not hide. If I get a flare up at work, I have to leave. But try driving w/ major pain is horrible as well. The FM fog drives me crazy. I forget simple task, like how to get around town or how to get to my daughters friends house(that I have been to tons of times). I have had to start writing down directions to place I travel to often.

as the weather changes, my lower back and butt are in great pain, sometimes all the way to my knees..no sleep and contact joint pain, is an everyday occurrence, and fibro fox..today, its all of the above.. sooooo stressful

The worst symptom of this awful illness for me is the pain. My so called family that doesn't live with me are unwilling to understand what I go through on a daily basis and are being real nasty. They say I should be the one going to my elderly parents house to mow the lawn, etc., instead of my niece or nephew that are in their 20s. I'm almost 60 for God's sake. How does one get ignorant people to see what is really going on?

My worst symptom is that usually my right leg hurts the worst and the pain radiates throughout my entire leg... right down to the marrow, radiating outward. My shin bone aches so badly, then that boney nub on the outside of my right knee and then my femur into the deepest recesses of my hip sockets. Today, I was late in taking my pain killer and I was watching a movie and the pain was causing tears to run down my face... I could not believe the intensity of it. At that point, I think I might have welcomed amputation...

My worst symptom would have to be the pain in my shoulders,and neck area.But,I would have to say that the worst part of fibro is feeling like a drug seeker,or a hypochondriac when you try to find a doctor to help you. I have been belittled by several,and they make you want to give up. But,that ain't gonna happen!!! Cheers to all.

The worst for me is the constant pain in my legs. I walk with a cane most of the time now. Second would be my arm pain. Getting to the point that I hurt to use the cane. Whats a girl to do?

My pain is in my legs and hips,back . also when the my neck hurt that it cause the head to hurt . Its really the pain in my legs.

It's really a toss up between the insomnia and the flu-like symptoms.
