Re: New Fibromyalgia Coming to terms with it

[Guest guest]

I was just talking about this with my daughter today. I used to be able to

speed read, comprehend quickly, and learn easily, I spent years working as a

computer analyst. Now, (just dxed with fibro less than a year ago) I have

trouble focusing and can't seem to remember new stuff for more than about 5

minutes. I'm trying to build a simple web site for my husband's business,

but I can't seem to get my act together to figure it out. It's so

frustrating!
