RE: 10 steps and Welcome Dana

August 27, 2002

, you post was excellent. Thanks for the information. I, too, am a firm

believer in trying to keep a positive attitude with my life. I would like to

print out your 10 steps so that I can try them but can't figure out how to print

your post only without printing out all of the posts and wasting my ink and

paper. Does anyone know how to do this?

Dana, Nice to have you aboard. I can relate with your FMS. I, too, have every

symptom that you listed, plus, numbness and swelling in my extremities, and

difficulty swallowing a lot. I get choked real easy and liquids seem to go down

the wrong way quite frequently. I even woke up one night strangling, evidently

my saliva went down my windpipe. I liked to never got it coughed up. It

literally scared the bejeebers out of me.

Hope all is having a good day today. I'm doing ok today other than my neck and

shoulders is killing me. The rest of me is being calm and pain-free for a

change. I know that the pain in my neck will cause a headache before the day is

overwith. You get to know the signs after a while. That's when I take an extra

pain med to try to prevent it. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Bless you all.

Cheryl

P.s. , please feel free to e-mail me personally with any good tips or

information you find or have. I research this alot too. The Fibromyalgia Network

is an excellent source and I subscribe to their newsletters. VERY INFORMATIVE!
