I've been living with Fibromyalgia for a long while now and just discovered that itching can be another symptom ( Read more... )

I've had what I now realize is probably a new symptom the last week or two.  It started where I'd feel a little high, totally out of the blue.  The last couple days it's been: dizzy, weak, trouble focusing my eyes, fast heartbeat, no energy.  Today walking two blocks was too much.  I felt fine at first but after the dizziness started my energy was ( Read more... )

I've always been what my mom called "cold natured", we both were. Everyone else in a room would be too warm but we'd be in sweaters because we were cold. I'm sure y'all see where this is going. For a little while now I've been noticing that I'm warm when no one else is. I actually had to wait outside while my husband ordered take out not too ( Read more... )

Hello! I need some dental advice regarding an ongoing situation I'm having with a tooth ( Read more... )

Lately my flare are accompanied with difficulty breathing.  My chest feels heavy, it's hard to take deep breaths and I feel faint when I'm on my feet. A few times I've hyperventilated as if I was having a panic attack without the panic. Does anyone else have this problem?

Hello there

Hope everyone is as good as they can be today.

May I ask a question?

Does anyone else get cold like symptoms where then are over tired?  For instance, at the moment I have swollen glands, a headache and a sore throat and I don't think it is a cold?

Thanks in advance.

Alright...so after being fairly good (mostly having to sit and rest but still managing to do minor daily housework, shopping and activities) I've been flat out pretty much this whole week. Can't get up. I mean, it's hard to describe how fatigued that I am at the moment. But then you'd all know. LOL ( Read more... )

So, I think this flare is so bad it caused an endorphin dump in my body. My ears feel hot and my neck and throat are still a little sore, but I feel sort of swimmy headed and the rest of my pain is pretty much gone. My body also feels oddly warm.

Has anyone else experienced this? It's weird...

Hi everyone. I'm Christine and I was officially diagnosed with fibromyalgia last week. I also have asthma, allergies (treated with shots, highly recommended), and Sjogren's Syndrome. I'm 23 years old. I'm so glad this community exists. It helps to know there are others out there who understand how hard fibromyalgia is. Here's my story.

( My journey so far after the cut )

I just wanted to do a quick symptom check here, but I'll definitely bring it up at my next rheumatologist appointment. Has anyone ever had trouble swallowing? I feel as though there's only a tiny little space in my throat for food to go down, and it makes eating a full meal very tiring and frustrating. The annoying part is that I can't even tell ( Read more... )
