Hello everyone - My name is a and although diagnosed just last year,

I'veprobably had this since I was in my teens. That was a whole lot ofyears

ago.2007 was a very stressful year for me and I think that threw me overthe edge

- I reached a point where I couldn't deal with the pain anymore.My internal

medicine doc tried a few years ago to talk about thepossibility of all my

'issues' being fibromyalgia, but I wouldn'tconsider it.I work in the medical

field and believe that if you can't show me atest result that proves I have

this, then it isn't real. right.Part of me feels that I should toughen up and

quit whining...that'sthe part in total denial of the diagnosis.The other part

hurts so badly, is so scared and desperately needsothers likewise afflicted to

talk to! The other day, my sister askedme how I was feeling and I told her that

I didn't know because I don't'check in' with myself too often. When I do, I

realize how badly Ihurt. Then I wonder why I'm so tired all the time!My 3

children are grown - 2 are married. I have one adorable 2 1/2 yrold grandson

that is the light of my life. Another grandchild will beborn in August. Being a

grandma is so awesome!I've been reading posts to the group and so much is

familiar. I'll attempt to add my '2 cents' to threads and hope to do

soappropriately. Reading that this group is like a family is so comforting!I

look forward to 'talking' with people who actually know what I'mgoing

through!!take care!a
