- Hi guys, I once again need your help. Caleb's rheum has declined to help us with PE and any modifications that should be done for Caleb and deferred to our ped (ped is local, Rheum is 90 mins away, rheum thinks ped will be more familiar with the...
- We saw my son's rheum last week and he said that nausea isn't a symptom of FMS. But everything I read online (reputable sites) says it is. Do you guys experience nausea?Also, he thinks it's weird that Caleb's fibro flares when it's cold. I swear...
- I read that a recent study said Tai Chi was good for people with fibromyalgia. We are struggling to find some sort of exercise for my 11 year old son that isn't too stressful but keeps him active. Does anyone do Tai Chi and if so, do you have a...
- Caleb has now had tonsillitis 3 times since this whole FMS thing started. He'd never had it before. Is this common? I tried a google search to no avail. Thanks.
- Anyone ever take this? Caleb's pediatrician prescribed it yesterday to replace his Elavil to help him sleep but I have concerns about it. I've already faxed a letter to his rheum about it (his rheum is 90 mins away and impossible to call... but...
- We have our 504 meeting today with the school. Any positive thoughts you could send our way would be appreciated. Thanks.
- So Caleb's had a few good days and now wants to participate in a jump rope-a-thon. I just cringe when I think about the jarring that will cause. What do you think? Should I let him and pray for the best?

- So, the last time we saw the rheumatologist (about 3 weeks ago), I asked him if there were factors as to which kids grew out of fibro and which didn't. He said the ones who keep active are the ones who outgrow it. He said an HOUR a day. This just...
- Hi, I have two questions. Our ped told us that the melatonin only works if you take it after you are in bed and in the dark. I tried researching this, but can't find anything that says that. Caleb is still terrified of the dark so he sleeps with...
- Saw the pediatrician today and Caleb just has a virus. But I'm curious, do colds, flu, etc. exacerbate your FMS symptoms? Caleb was really doing well, then got this virus, and it's awful again. He was up until 2:00 a.m. due to the pain. Just...
- So 18 months ago, before Fibro, I considered myself good at deciding when to take the kids to the doc. Now, I have no clue. Caleb has had a cough since November that we've been trying to treat, multiple doc appts. This weekend, the cough has...
- I was just curious if any of your wear one of these for FMS? I saw one the other day and didn't really see the need, but maybe I'm missing something?
- Hi all, I'm having some trouble with people who think FMS is all in your head. Do you have any good articles, short and sweet, that discuss the studies, etc. proving it's real? I'd really like to just have these in my arsenal for when I come up...
- I'm new to this format, so please excuse any faux pas I might make.I'm hoping that you'll let me hang out here. I don't have fibromyalgia, but my 10 year old son does. It is taking it's toll on us both. And my IRL friends are ignorant about FM...
