I just joined the group yesterday and wanted to say hi and tell you a

little bit about me to start off. I am a 49 yr old happily married

christan woman who has had fibromyalgia for the last 16 yrs, give or

take a few.

Hi Carolyn,

Welcome to the group. I'm sorry that pain has brought you here, but glad

you found us. This is a very caring and supportive group. We even have fun

together..imagine that??? It is very reassuring to find out even when some

minor quirky things going on with you are common to others who have fibro.

It makes you feel a little more abnormally " normal. " lol. I look forward to

getting to know you.

hugs,

Sundra

Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall

Dear Carolyn,

Welcome to the group. And sorry you have to be here on one hand, and yet

happy to meet another in my condition. I guess in some sick way it makes me

feel better that I am not so alone in all of this. My name is G. and I

live across the states from you in Oregon . I am an hour from the beach. I

just started posting again yesterday. I have been camping for a while and then

I busted up my tailbone by falling down. So Needless to say I haven't been able

to sit for a while. I guess I have been gone for a few weeks, but I still

recognize many of the names here and I can tell you that there are some very

sweet people in this group , and also some very well educated folks when it

comes to Fibro. Many of them also have a great sense of humor and will send

you in stitches laughing so hard. I have enjoyed this group very much and have

been member since March, I hope you love it here as much as I do. Sorry for

the rambling, It's four in the morning and I can't sleep I'm sure you can

relate. G.

Hello from Oregon !

I just joined the group yesterday and wanted to say hi and tell you a

little bit about me to start off. I am a 49 yr old happily married

christan woman who has had fibromyalgia for the last 16 yrs, give or

take a few. Actually I wish someone would take them all. LOL.

I also have RSD, Neuropathy, and severe sciatica, actually all of them

are severe enough that they have put me in an electric wheelchair

anytime I need to go out of our apartment. My husband is very

supportive of me ane takes very good care of me.

We have 3 children and 7 grandchildren, none of the grandchildren live

close to us and it is really hard, because we miss and love them

dearly, but when they do come up I am wore out with in an hour and

makes it really hard on me becausee I feel selfish for wanting to go

lay down.

Anyway that is a taste and hopefully over time I will know more about

you and you about me.

Wishing you a pain free day

Carolyn

1. While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as

to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr.

Some treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to

certain health conditions or just dangerous in general.

2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't

be afraid to ask for help. It is the first step to trying to make that

situation better.

Have a nice day everyone.
