Question:
I have been formaly diagnosed with myofascial syndrom, but now that
I've started looking at ongoing symptoms it seems more like
fibromyalgia (starting to notice when my knees and elbows hurt for no
reason). I've been taking 40mg of Nortriptyline daily, and that has
helped a lot, but seems to be loosing its effectiveness (4 mo of use).
Are there any support groups in the San Francisco bay area that are
either for us younger folk (I'm 19) or for men with fibromyalgia/MFS?
Answer:
try this website: www.menwithfibro.com. I'm a girl, not a guy,
but I could easily relate to the heartbreak in the personal stories.
Very sympathetic site with forums, a chatroom and sound medical info.
