Many people are working very hard to get some much needed answers relating to what we're dealing with. Don't lose hope.

What are your worst symptoms right now?

Around the same time as being diagnosed with FMS I also started experiencing migraines, hence the Nurofen, I also take Zomig (for migraines) when needed. With the recent diagnosis of inflammatory arthritis I'm currently on a very small dose of prednisone. My rheumatologist did try me on Lyrica which worked wonders however it cost about $130 for 2 months and I put on 3 kgs in 2 weeks so I took myself off it. I work fulltime because I have to, I support my husband who has had 2 brain tumours removed and has memory loss probs, we also have 2 teenage sons. If I could give up work right now I would. I find it difficult to cope on really warm/hot days, I fatigue easily and have to kind of constantly rest. I do have a massage every 6 weeks and that sometimes helps. Otherwise I just plod along and hope the next day will be a little better. Sorry not really much help. Thanks for your welcome. Leanne

I think I might be the first Aussie on this site!

Please say Hi, as I really would love to hear from anyone who can help me on my journey with Fibromyalgia.
Now I have a name for what I've been living with for 20 years, I am kinda lost as I don't really know what to expect - except more of the same......
I suppose I'm looking for some light at the end of this very long and tiring tunnel.
Cheers,
Kate.
