Re: fibro teresas

Oh Sweetie,

I think most of us know too well how you feel. I had decided along time

ago, when I was going through such pain and I would cry and cry because I

could

barely move, and people would say, You sick again? Well what's wrong with

you. I had decided then if you were not broke or bleeding no one understood

your pain.

people I am sure thought it was all in my head. after all isn't that what

some doctors tell you. As they are writing your script for depression med's? I

am not knocking depression med's I take them myself.

Before fibro became so well know. All you had was all of these same symptoms

in people mostly women and know one had a name for it. I remember telling a

doctor that some day they would find a name for what I had. Too many people

wit the same pain in the same areas not to call it something.

I also have sleep apnea and my doctor is also the head of the sleep lab and

of course most of my problems are because I do not sleep well at night. If I

could just get a good night's sleep I would be pain free.

Never did believe that one.

I remember someone saying once oh her, (talking of someone else) she is

trying to get SSI for her fibro. now where on earth did she think she could

make

up a thing like that and get paid to sit on her butt.

I kindly smiled and looked at him and said not impossible if they can prove

she had it. After all that is what I suffer from. Complete silence.

I am so thankful for this group. I have learned so much about this disease

that I have had for so long. I appreciate everyone sharing their ideas or

med's or what works for them.

Thanks,

Norma/Ohio
