Thanks for making the video and doing your research - Although, over six million Americans suffer from Fibromyalgia.

Great video! It tells the story of many of us. Thanks for making it. I hope the word gets out. Fibromyalgia is real!

Nice video. Thank you so much! I used to have severe fibro. After many years and many bad drug reactions, I am finally seeing symptom relief with a very restrictive diet. Food reactions seem to be causing a lot of my joint/muscle pain. I used to not be able to walk or move without screaming out in pain and blacking out. By eliminating 84 foods from my diet, I can now stand again! Hopefully one day I will be able to walk without using a wheelchair. I hope all is well with you! Many blessings!

Wow....This hit me like a ton of bricks..Every single thing in this video is EXACTLY what I am going through.But I am in the process right now of going through MRI's to see the status of my knee and back which are only two of the many places on my body that I am suffering from incredible pain.I will mention Fibro now when I see my Doc next. I have a question...Do you also feel really shaky (arms and hands)? I'm having trouble with writing,griping and balance on top of pain and stiffness. Thanx:)

Thank you. You described very well what all of us living with FMS have to deal with every day. Each time I feel sick and afraid of being called a "hypochondriac", someone like yu comes a long and feels the same things I feel and I no longer am alone in my pain.

I want to cry. This is my life and so happy to have someone confirm (at least to me) I am not a Fraud. Thank You!!!!

My wife was just diagnosed with Fibromyalgia... and i'm trying to do all I can to learn about it and make sure that I am treating her fairly and being understanding of her needs.

Thanks for posting. I want to understand what she is going through so that I can pick up the slack even when I am tired myself... my pain and my inconvenience is nothign compared to what you described. If i could help relieve the stress she feels... that would be enough for me. Thanks again.
