Hello to all

[Guest guest]

Hello to all,

My name is Sara. I am 21 and a full time single parent of an

almost 3 year old daughter named Bekah. I have had fibro for the last

6 years but after seeing Dr St Amand he says it has probably been my

whole life. I am now concerned of my two older sisters and my

daughter getting it. I just saw St Amand for first time last week

even though I put myself on the guaifensin since January. I didn't

feel myself getting any better on regular pain meds and wanted to try

something else. My mom being a mom went to the bookstore and got

every book on RSD. I was given guai in the hospital for pneumonia (I

know that is not spelled correctly) and I felt much better. Once my

mom narrowed it down to that drug I have been slowly returning to some

sense of normalcy. My fibro is complicated with RSD and blood clots

which are spreading. I try and lead as normal a life as possible.

That means alot of the time my daughter has to play with me on the

computer which is why there are alot of numbers in my e-mails at times

but she is the only 2 year old I know who knows how to turn on

a computer and to type at 2. I study computer tech from home and

desire to get my computer certificates. I am considering writing a

book on Fibro about the identity of those who have Fibro. It is an

idea I have been considering since I turned 21 in February and it

hit me that I needed to do something excpet go in circles. I feel

like no one knows who I am beyond the fibro and I have a desire to

write and let others know that are " nomal " aka dont' have fibro that

there is a human beneath those that have Fibro. I know this has been

to long but that is a bit about me. Feel free to e-mail me privately

or IM me at USARdTrip on AIM. Sara
