New to the site and just wanted to say hello.....

[freckles31]

A friend of mine introduced me to this site so I thought I would join and say hello.

I have just recently been diagnosed with Fibro after many years of suffering with migraines and the past 2 year IBS, I was getting fed up of being referred to different specialist for one thing or another. I have had numerous blood tests and scans and every time the results came back the Dr looked puzzled............at one point they thought I had gall stones due to the pain I was getting, but one US later and nothing there.

Anyway we moved and since seeing our new Dr, he was the one who actually told me what it was.......so here I am, saying 'hello' to you all

hi freckles, nice to meet you. I'm a newbie as well, having stumbled on this site a couple of weeks back. you're definitely with friends here and it's actually gobsmacking to know that so many people out there feel as we do. FM is on the rise. It took 10 years before my rheumatologist finally admitted I had FM as well as RA. Things all made sense then.

hope you find good friendship here. the support on this site is tremendous

Hiya, i've been on this site for about 2 weeks now, its interesting to hear everybody elses stories and how they cope with FM, suppose after all this time its a relief to finally have a name for this condition, hope you enjoy this site as much as we all do.

Thank you everyone for all the kind words.......I now know I have joined the right group. I have noticed that it is a very lonely condition, not very many people know about it or even understand it....... But I'm sure I will get the best advice on here .....as you say the only people who can understand fibro are those with fibro

I look forward to speaking to you all soon........and I'm happy to be part of the family x x x x x
