Guest guest Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 Hello, my name is Debbie, I am a 29 year old mother of 2 boys 5 & 7 and have been recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia (about 3 months ago). I am struggling to come to terms with this as it has almost been completely disabling. For a long time the Drs. were guessing that I was suffering from MS as my mother has this but after months of painful testing (you all know this I am sure), I have been told now that it is Fibro. The depression has to be one of the worst parts as you have to learn to accept that " pain " is your new confidant. Everyone looks at me and assumes that because I am 29 years old, I should be vivarent and fine. Not the case. I came here because I struggle a lot and this whole thing is scary. I recently spent more than 2 months at home because I battled a bad spout of IBS which my rheumy later informed me was also a part of fibro. So anyways, I guess I am looking for any form of help, and also, I am a great listener for anyone who needs it. Look forward to chatting with you all! And thanks for having me!!!-Deb __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
