I have had pains for years but it was always brushed off as something else and finally last week after being treated for RSL for approx 3 years, my dr tells me I have fibro.. I seriously thought I had early states of Alzheimer.. I had never heard for fibro-fog until I started reading on this site. I am forever forgetting the simplest things from my keys, cell phone, even to where I left my shoes. I go to a room and forget why I even went there. It's so frustrating. I often end up in tears over it because I simply thought I was going crazy. I am having to suffer through the spasms and pain though as my dr says the only treatment is exercise which at this point, I can't even walk without assistance.His office told me to find my own rheumotologist but the ones I contacted that were in my insurance network dont treat fibro and theres a pain management clinic that does but my doc wont give me a referral to there, so I dont know what to do!
Well so nice to meet you and know that I am not alone in this....I lose things, forget what I am doing or where I am going, having a hard time typing cause I cant remember where the keys are. Have been in this episode for about 7 weeks now.
Does anyone have any solutions?

Oh, dear shopping list, you will be so missed. When you reach your destination, say hi to all my lists who wait to greet you!

I will never multi-task. Trying to do that is like texting while driving through fibro-fog.

Elizabeth, I have done that so many times! I think I am wearing a headband, and it turns out to be my sunglasses!
But Elizabeth, you were looking for your sun glasses and you found them. That sounds like a success story to me!
Comment by Elizabeth on March 11, 2013 at 8:27am I was looking for my sun glasses the other day. I looked in my bag, in my coat pocket, all around me. Ran my hands throu my hair and knocked them off my head.
I know its not funny but I have to laugh or I end up in teaRS MORE THAN i DO NOW.
