- I saw this article today and wanted to share it. The doctor in question proposes an official ICD-10 code (for medical coding of doc visits) as a next step on the journey of bringing ME into the spotlight as real, researched, and...
- Hey all. I am very sensitive to chaos, interruptions, loud noises, you know, the regular things that happen in life. I do best when I get some down time each day. In other words, I need to be able to *turn off* and be left alone for a period each...
- Yeah, there's a subject line for you. This is about what I'm discovering about MY lack of compassion, not others toward me. I feel SO guilty right now! My DH was diagnosed a few weeks ago with Type 2 Diabetes. I have had insulin...
- So at my last neuro appointment the doc finally decided to try a test dose of ritalin for me to see if it would help me focus and work more effectively. The good news is that it totally helped. I was able to focus and get my work done in an amazing...
- So in our area there has been an unusual heatwave over the last week. Record-setting days, several in a row, for the extreme heat. We've been in the triple digits for heat and around 106+ for heat index numbers. Note, I do drink plenty of...
- So today is another follow-up with the neuro psych i've been seeing. He was very promising the first visit I had after the full evaluation. But the last one was not so promising. I am hoping that today's visit will be meaningful and helpful. I have...
- Good day everyone! I have heard many folks say that they get auras before their migraines. I find that if I can head off a migraine with meds *before* it gets horrible, I have a better chance of relief. Unfortunately, I suck at identifying them...
- Hi all, I have realized that I need to change my PCP to someone who actually works with CFS on a regular basis and knows what to do. When I search online I am coming up with rheumatologists mostly. Is that the kind of doctor you are seeing? Or...
- they are living at the doc's office? I have never been so busy with doctor's appts in my life. I am seeing my PCP for migraines, the neuro for CFS/Fibro, another about weightloss, another about sleep. I have 2-4 appts per week. Feels like I'm living...
- Hi everyone,I have been trying to get through my life working full time, taking care of my kids, taking a class, and not going crazy. I have long since realized that I cannot do this with CFS. I have been in a flare for months and crashed numerous...
- So while I was talking to (read: crying with) my husband last night, I realized one of my biggest emotional issues is the guilt I feel b/c I don't understand what it's like for him, supporting someone like me. He wants me to tell him what to do, but...
- Saw this on another group. A great (and easy!) way to prepare your family for the kind of day you're having....
- Just found this from the CFS Alliance. Yoga for Fibromyalgiahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYpKxvPC0Go
- Found this article this morning and I found it quite enlightening. http://www.healthline.com/health-news/study-helps-explain-brain-fog-in-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-033115#3
- Good morning! Or at least it is going to be a good morning for you. I've been on DS for about a month but kinda new to this community. My name is Jenna and I was originally diagnosed with Fibromyalgia about fifteen years ago. Since then I've also...
