Hi new to the group my name is

December 16, 2007

I'm 37 and was finally given a diagnosis of fibro going on 2 years

ago, I think.. Time seems to run together now and I cant keep track

of dates or times. Not to mention I seem to forget more then I ever

knew. I do know that after reading some and pondering, well I may

have a lot of pain constantly, but I am truly blessed with a Loving

and understanding hubby.(My heart goes out to you ) I also

realize that their is no hope and that is depressing. I have two

small boys ages 6 and 3 and trying to keep up with them is not easy,

and to think I used to work two jobs and still do all the home chores

too. Now I'm lucky to get the dishes washed, or the vacuuming done

and still be able to move. I have never felt more useless or

frustrated in my life as I have since this whole mess started. My

Hubby tells me its ok, I'm still here with him and the boys, and he

is right, but not being able to do the things I used to do bothers me

all the time. The doctors are no great help, I've been bounce around

to many different ones, and the pain clinic here. They all look at me

like I'm just trying to get drugs. Yeah something to help the pain! I

do however have a great chiropractor, he is actually the one who

pointed me in the right direction to get diagnosed. Besides the fibro

I've had sever allergies for years and even to allot of medications.

Then there is the curve in my lower spine and that make my hips

unlevel so walking is always painful. I have IBS, thyroid problems,

problems now with my bladder... I'm just plain falling apart. Well I

guess that is enough about me for now, I fell outside today so I'm

even more sore then I was, and need to go sit in my chair and put up

my feet. I did get to watch my boys play outside in the first real

snow we've had this year., so it was worth it. If you have any

questions let me know, this is the first group I have ever joined and

it is a little overwhelming. in Michigan
