Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hi everyone,I'm Ginger. I just wanted to introduce myself and tell you a little about me. I'm 43 and live in Western North Carolina. I'm divorced and have a son 20 and a daughter 15 that live with me. I love animals,especially dogs.I breed and raise a few just for my pleasure and to help with my income.They are my furbabies and are what helps me get through my days. I've had Fibro and Chronic Fatigue for a little over 15 yrs. I was diagnoised with Depression about 9 yrs ago and I've since gotten my SSI and Disablity.Just this past year I was diagnosed as being bi- polar. I also have pernicious anemia (can't absorb B12),knots in my thyroid,an anuerism in my renal artery,and possibly Epstein Barr Virus. I have chills,body aches,fevers (basically flu like symptoms) etc with mine. I've met a few people with Fibro that have these symptoms but I know not everyone does. My Doctor put me on Lyrica about 4 months ago,and I'm on a lot of anti-depressants. I can't tell that the Lyrica is doing a whole lot for me - as an anti-depressant or for the Fibro. Well I guess that's about it! I'm glad that I've found a group of people that can and will understand the problems of living daily with Fibro. So many people don't understand because we look " normal " to them! Everyone have as good a day as possible and take care... Ginger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
