I was told I have Fibromyalgia in 1992 but I'msure I had it way before then.I'm 57 yrs old, female and divorced. I have two grown sons & 4grandchildren but they live in another state. My closest companion is mylittle sheltie I call HoneyBear.I have many things wrong with me other than FMS. I also have been told Ihave CFS and RSD. I have DDD and have had 3 cervical & 2 lumbar surgeries. I have a pain pump implanted into my abdomen. I'm sure it helps but I amstill in a great deal of pain daily. Some days are worse than others ofcourse.I also can not stand up straight. I started stooping about 5 yrs ago andnow it is almost impossible for me to even walk. I either use a rollator ora power chair. No doctor has been able to explain why I can't stand upstraight. I don't have osteoporosis, so just don't know what is going on. I sold my house last March and moved into a senior complex and there are 3other ladies here who are in the same condition. I was wondering if any ofyou are that way and if so if you have been told by a doctor why?Also, does anybody here take Lyrica? I think that is the name of the newmiracle drug, right? Does it really help?Hope to get to know many of you. Gentle hugs to all.BJ in AR _________________________________________________________________ Climb to the top of the charts!
