Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Thanks , I will be looking forward to that e-mail. I know it's progressive and not just in my case, yours or Debra's. That's one of the reasons it is such a monster, and a sneaky one at that. There are times it makes me feel like I'm bi-polar because when I'm not feeling quite as lousy I come up with all of these things I'm going to do and get excited about them. Then I make preparations and plans and get started. but when the pain gets more intense and mostly when the fibro fog settles in along with the fatigue I have to put everything on hold or give up entirely. From afar it could look like just huge mood swings if my condition weren't known. I've even discussed this with my doctor and my children. But it's not my mood so much that changes, it's my health that changes my mood. I hope you are feeling better today.

Someday I will e-mail you personally and tell you my story and I believe after you read it you will hace a greater understanding of my situation!

It has progressed with me little by little rather than a huge step at a time, like for you. It teases me and I think it's going to stay where it is and then it just jerks the rug out from under me right when I think I can start making long range plans again. This is God forsaken stuff we are dealing with.Martidebra van ness wrote:It is progressive . I know from my own experience. I don't see myself able to keep working until I am 65. The last 5 years have attacked me and the fibro went 10 fold. You know I told you that I use to have very mild symptoms for years... so mild I did not realize I was sick. Just tired all the time, numnbness and tingling in the fingers, and also fibro fog which I did not recognize it to be fibro fog. Now the tired has turned to exhaustion and the pain set when I had that flare 5 years ago. My body was never the same after that flare. I also get the stiffness I never had in my younger years. So bad that sometimes I have to literally roll myself out of bed because my back won't bend and all my joints stiffen.love ya,Debra V.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 That's great. I hope it never changes and that you have more good days than bad.
