Anyone else have ADHD and Fibromyalgia???

No, my manifested into adrenal fatigue. A psych APRN warned me about 15 years ago that if I didn’t get my stress levels under control I would end up with chronic adrenal fatigue or fibromyalgia. I wish I’d understood then how debilitating either can be, and how it would impact my life, probably forever.

I found the curable app helpful for chronic pain! I had chronic migraines and neck/shoulder/back pain. I still have pain sometimes, but it’s much better than it used to be

No, but my mom has had fibromyalgia for as long as I can remember. Me and my sister (who also has ADHD), suspect that she might have it as well. Recent studies show a strong comorbidity between fibro and ADHD

Yeah I've heard that (they think) it's probably triggered by physical trauma, but there seems to be a genetic component as well. Pretty sure my great grandmother had it as well, but the diagnosis didn't exist back then. I'm sure you know this, but it's much more common among women as well. I've seen first-hand how hard it can be on a person (though I can't really understand the chronic pain since I've not experienced it). I feel for you. Hang in there.

I didn’t know that. I know they believe fibromyalgia can result from medical trauma and I started having symptoms after having a gastric sleeve.
