feeds@yuku.com (thereishope) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 01:21:36 GMT

My only purpose here is to urge everybody who'd listen to look up Dr. John E. Sarno. He has cured many people of chronic pain and other diseases.
look him up and see the real reviews, you don't have to suffer. I was there once.
Good luck to you all and God bless!

Hi Everyone,

Im new to joining here and new to FMS, infact i can barely say it!
I was seen by a specialist after many many years of suffering and contiuous gp visits, to be told i have advanced FMS, et al, which im still very clueless about.
I really dont know where to start with introducing myself, i dont want to list my many aliments and be self pitying or profess to know what im talking about. I guess other than the chronic pain, the isolation, depression,...

Hatchet Butt

Hi Y'all-
I'm new to this website, though I've read through various messages for years!! I was too "shy" to write anything. But I'm so lonely for people of "like problems" and for some compassionate support--- I broke through my fear and here I am. I call myself "Hatchet Butt" because I fell almost 15 years ago and have had excruciating pain going from my sacrum down into "private regions" since then. I have not been able to SIT...

Hello, I met the creators of this site on another site which is no longer up with cloud in it's name. Last time I had my own computer, my son was an infant. He is 9 now, and healthy and happy. I wish to better introduce myself to everyone here tomorrow, as I am in too much pain to type much more tonight but then I'm finally back to a place where everyone understands what that really means, LOL I have much to discuss about my own health issues, and I hope I may offer some...

New member with back problems

feeds@yuku.com (FineSwine) — Fri, 21 Aug 2009 03:43:03 GMT

Hi there wonderful people! I have been having back problems for years, I have five levels that need fixing. I went to the neurosurgeon last week. I did this as a last resort, my pains have become unbearable. I can't do the things I would like, simple housekeeping, sitting, walking for any distance, or even going to the zoo. When I do this, then I'm down for several days trying to get better. The doctor suggested I have my hips xrayed as he thought my pain wasn't just coming from...

I felt and sttill feel a bit alone with my illness,fel I am at constant war with my doctors and ashamed that I cannot keep my pain to...

Hi... Just reaching out...

feeds@yuku.com (devildidsuzie) — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 15:49:27 GMT

Hi... I'm not in pain, but my hubby is. I want to make his life easier, but I don't know how. My heart feels like it's constantly being squeezed to death when I see him so depressed and in so much agony. I want to talk about it, but no one seems to really "get" what he's going through. I also want to talk about my own depression in this... His moods have become unpredictable and I find that I have to walk on eggshells 24/7 just to avoid upsetting him... But I...

Hello... KingsMom pointed me to this board, so I thought I'd say hi.

I've been having awful neck pain for over a year and a half, and it keeps getting worse. I've been to two different chiropractors, and a couple of doctors. I've been reading up, and knowing that KM was found to have Lyme that was causing her Fibro, I found a LLMD about an hour from me, who also specializes in...

Introducing Me...

feeds@yuku.com (Santosha1) — Sat, 02 May 2009 14:54:49 GMT

Greetings All,

I don't think I've ever introduced myself to my "Sunshine Friends" here. My name is Susanne, I am 48, married, two adult children and live in Denver, CO.

I was diagnosed with FMS in my mid to late 20's. I was able to manage it well enough to raise two kids (was single mom for 10 years), and finish a career in the US Air Force. I spent the majority of my career as a paralegal...yes I was a stress junkie.

In 2003, the year...

Hi all , I just found you while browsing for groups, and I'm guessing you're one of those groups who you join just by posting???! I have CFS, FMS, adrenal insuffiency, hiatus hernia, anxiety disorder and a few more diagnoses, and have been unable to work for 8 years. I look forward to meeting new friends!!

Hello my name is Maria and I have recently been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I have been ill since october 2007 and have struggled a lot. I have been on the site before but ages ago so thought I would re-introduce myself to everyone.

Hi from Central Canada

feeds@yuku.com (cate) — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 14:17:30 GMT

Hi, all,

I've been diagnosed with severe osteoarthritis of the hip, bilaterally and degenerative disk disease in the cervical spine. During the past few years, I've already had three surgeries. I'm hoping to wait one more year until I have the right hip replaced. The surgeries wiped me out. I'd like to spend some more time surgery-free before going under again.

Anyway, I'm new to this board so I thought I'd try to post this first...

New to this..

Hi Everyone - I was just diagnosed after years of exhaustion, pain and a whole slew of other symptoms with Fibromyalgia. I like to joke that at 28 I am officially decrepit! The smallest task takes the most monumental effort. My husband and I have been married about 3 years now and we were talking recently about having kids...I can barely get out of bed some days let alone run after a little one. I'm at a bit of a loss of where to start. My doctor didn't give me specific instructions...

Hi, Lavendar, New here. Have recent infection with EBV (plus, and old infection...) How new and how old, not sure! I am rather old to be getting it, though; almost 60! Also, have fibromyalgia, migraines, allergic asthma, degenerative disk disease, sciatica, arthritis, partially ruptured achilles tendons, gallbladder disease, IBS... some sort of crazy mood/sleep disorder, too (though maybe all that's from not feeling well, eh? Not to mention, the meds!)
