Fibromyalgia sufferers. How do you think it started for you?
Saturday, September 26th, 2009 at
I'm trying to tie the onset to how I think it all started. I know it was a virus that somehow affected my thyroid. I developed severe thyroiditis but since doctors didn't recognize the symptoms I got no treatment. Now I have fibromyalgia. I've read that it can start with a trauma of some kind and the nerves just get crossed wired to the brain. What's your experience?
