New Member Hi Everyone

Hi everyone. I am new here. My nme is Shell. I am a 36 year old

married mother of three Daughters (16,14,12). I was diagnosised with

Fibro in 1999 after an auto accident. I have had symptoms since I was

a teen but didn't become " full blown " until after the accident. I was

a medical professional but shortly after diagnosis I was told it was

no longer safe for me or those I would be working on. I spent a while

in a massive depression because I loved my job. I went through the

SSA process and after sitting before the Judge I was told he didn't

understand whythey had denied me three times before seeing him. 4

different drs including theirs said I would never be able to work

again. I am positive in all 18 tender points and have othe of the

medical issues that go along with Fibro. I currently see one of the

Best Pain Drs (in my opinion) in IL. He has helped me tolerate the

pain that once left me stuck in bed. I believe I have tried just

about every medication you can to get relief and get trigger point

injections bi monthly in the summer and every month in the winter.I

have a very positive attitude because I have found my illness effects

my children so Itry and be as happy as I can. One of my daughters is

showing early signs of Fibro and I try and help her attain her goals

and teach her ways to cope I have a very supportive husband and

family. So that is me. If anyone ever needs someone to talk to feel

free to message me.

Thanks-

SHell

Welcome Shell. My 14 yr. old daughter was diagnosed with FM at the age of 10.

I myself have been diagnosed for 10 years, but had symptoms as a child as well.

Gotta keep this short for now. Take care.
