Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Hi all, I am 45/ w fibromyalgia. I am married and have 2 children in their 20's. My son Nick is 24 and healthy, he is a pharmacy tech and is trying to get into pharmacy school to be a pharmacist. My daughter is 22 and has cystic fibrosis. She is in college and doing well. She was dxed at 8 months of age and had a pretty rough time growing up, lots of hospitalizations and home IV's plus 13 sinus surgeries! but since she has been 15 has been doing a lot better. And that was when she had her last sinus surgery. I don't know why she has gotten better, I am just thankful! I joined this group for me and her. I was dxed w/ fibro in 1999. I also have allergies and asthma, chronic sinusitis, am overweight, have high bp and cholesterol, low thyroid, overactive bladder, sleep apnea, depression and anxiety. I am on morphine and Hydrocodone for the pain and 18 other meds for all the other stuff. Right now I am on biaxin for a sinus infection. I have had 4 sinus surgeries. Most of the meds work and I feel pretty well except for some pain. I recently started e-diets and am trying to lose 100 lbs. I can't believe I need to lose that much but I do! So far it's going well, I haven't been hungry. I weigh tomorrow and see if I lost anything yet. I am hoping losing weight will help with my other health problems. I am also starting to exercise but starting slow, only 5 minutes of the exercise bike a day, next week I will try for 10 minutes. So that's the update on me, I don't post very often but I read all the time and pray for you all. love, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
