Hey Deb! Welcome back. Boy, do I understand FM. Living w/it is like being in a magic show; you never know what's going to get pulled out of the hat at any given time.
can rear it's ugly head at the most inopportune time, much like Frank's MS.

The internet has alot of info on this illness and I found it very helpful when I was first dx'd. I have some other autoimmune illnesses, which seem to have surfaced after the FM dx, but could have been there prior~ who knows.
I also have a benign MS DX~ which is perplexing in itself.

Just keep trudging along, learn what works for your body and as much as I despise saying it~ accept it and don't let anyone tell you ''it's in your head'', b/c it's in your body. You will continue to be the same person you always were; adding an FM DX will not change who YOU are; it will change things, but your'e still Deb. One more reason we all need NT, b/c everyone is here for their own personal reasons.

PS: I also see a Rheumatologist for this.
