Hi

Hi,

Welcome to my life! I am not sure where to start but here goes....I have Fibromyalgia! This is a "disease" that will totally take your life and turn it upside down. One minute I was running around like a wild chicken and the next I couldn't get out of bed. My house could have been on fire and I would have just laid there.
I hurt from head to toe and thought I was going crazy, come to find out I'm not! I have tried keeping a written journal but that didn't go to well. I always have to much to say. HaHa.
There are so many symptoms, I think I have all but 2. Pain, exhaustion, memory loss, ibs, ic, fibro fog, dizziness, twitches, sleepleness and more that I can't remember right now. Thank goodness for spell check!

  5. Hi Lynn, I think this site is a great idea. I commend you for being willing to share your life and experiences so that others may better understand this disease. I pray that the site will grow and be a blessing to you and others that may be going through the same thing.

  6. WooHoo!! Here goes a time in your life that you can document and get some healing from. We all know the "old" Lynn is there screaming at everyone that you have not dissappeared and that you do still have the vigor and zest for life. I still see it in your eyes and know that those of us that you hold dear, do see and we are still creating memories with you that have that same zeal! I promise this road will find direction and you will come out on the other side knowing who is with you and how to handle life's new adventures. This is your war now, we are with you in your army but only you can conquer the beast. We will do everything we can to give you every ounce of extra strength on your journey. I commend you for this and I think you'll realize how really dedicated and strong you truly are. Believe in you because so many of us on the sidelines do everyday! Oh yeah, and we'll kick your butt when you don't!! love ya! Look forward to the book deal that will come out of this! -Mags
