Looking for others with fibromyalgia

Almost 12 years since I’ve been diagnosed with FM. I was 12-13 years old. 24 now. I also have Sjögren’s syndrome. It’s a struggle

I was diagnosed with fibro at 14 years old.

I have fibromyalgia and so does my daughter who is only 9

✋ hi. I’m new to this app. Happy to be here and talk with people who are dealing with similar issues. As I personally feel no one takes me serious. I’m 41 and people have this notion that I should be healthy I shouldn’t hurt I’m still young. Or because I hurt everywhere or only hurt a certain place one day and another the next day I’m making it up it’s all in my head. There’s no day I don’t go without pain it’s just some days are worse example rainy days or cold days. It’s really crippled me and I’ve lost a lot. I lost my job that I had for almost 9 years because I wasn’t able to perform my duties. I have increased anxiety. I take gabapentin 150 mg 3 times a day and it does nothing for me except make me sick if I don’t take it. Sorry to carry on. But I feel for everyone going through this, happy to be here and learn more about this awful auto immune disease.

Don't all of us here have it? That's why this pg was created! Since 1993,diagnosed 1995
