  • Missy I have had Fibromyalgia for many years. I also have degenerative joint and back disease. Bless you. ;-) Be prepared for people who will "have a cure" and try not to let them affect you in a negative way. I understand what you are going through. look for a "chronic support group" in your area (Google helps). Your pain is no less than someone who has had this for years.

  • I am starting a channel to bring people with&without illness together so they can help eachother and share experiences, also i want to show that you can be positive even if you are disabled, life is tough when you are ill. Youtube helps me connect to the world as i cant go out and do much for myself but theres so much negativety and arguing. I would like to make people laugh and raise awareness about the hardships of disability&bring people together, i can speak personally about fibromyalgia.

  • @Rbenson1979 What IS true is that if you give in to depression, get stressed, etc it gets worse (psychosomatic). I would LOVE to work, I've tried many many times, failing horribly. I WANT to. I'm now taking a few months rest and trying to start a study to not be depending on welfare completely. Despite them saying 'it will not get better'.

    Educate yourself.

  • @Rbenson1979 actually it's because your thyroid doesn't work properly, which causes your brain to malfunction (or something, they can't pinpoint it, but it IS also physical). Your brain doens't produce enough growth hormones, serotonine, painkilling hormones etc. Hypothyroidism also causes weight gain, lack of serotonine depression. Mind over matter? I'm sorry but, fuck you. This is real. I've got all the meds to treat the lack of hormones, does not work.

  • Please see the information on the product NCD on my facebook site McKinnee Health Group, it works for many with your condition. It takes all the toxin overload out of your body in a natural way. My contact info is there.

    Now this sounds good! All you overweight people take note!

  • A few people I know of use this illness as an excuse not to work, and its hard for a doctor to diagnose this illness because anyone can say " oh I have Fibromyalgia, can I go on disability please?" I think people who are mentally ill, overweight, and have a low self esteem get this condition. Mind over matter, if you don't mind it does not matter!

  • I have been dealing with fibro for over 20 years. Things have gotten so much worse over the years. At my lowest point I tried to end my life. The pain, inability to focus, being tired beyond words. Feeling helpless, hopeless.So many tests, so may drugs yet no relief. Now my kidneys are failing. Every ounce of will and energy is spent trying to get thru moment by moment, I dont remember what it is like to feel well anymore.

  • @snow3514 my doctor diagnoses from years of medical records

  • I too suffer from fibromyalgia and have for so many years. Sometimes the pain is too much to bear and I can’t imagine going on another day feeling this way. But then I found a comforting scripture in the Bible. Revelation 21:4 says “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” This is a promise from Jehovah God. This helps me cope day by day.
