Oh my ((Donna)) what a time you've had of it. That old 'when it rains, it pours' sure has been happening to you! Hope you are better.

((DM)) what meds do you take? Every time I see my doctor he harps on me (nicely though) to exercise. I wonder how many fibro patients he has? I just look at him and think...yeah, right! Should I exercise before or after I wrap up in my hot blankets after work for the pain?

It has been a rough month. And here I am, never having admitted that yes, I am a barometer, LOL! When I get up from my desk at work most days, it's a huge effort and I hobble around til my body gets with it. People are always asking what's wrong! Now I just go ahead and say "I have fibro, it's nasty, I'm in a bad flare, and I hurt all over." I usually get an "Awww, that's awful."

It is SO nice to be able to talk to people who share this! I don't feel so alone with it. There is one other lady at work with fibro and occasionally we commisserate.
