Laugh New here and don't EVEN know where to begin!

Hello all! I don't even know what forum I should be in. Some of my symptoms are like MG, some are like MS. Was diagnosed about 6 years ago with fibromyalgia, hypothyroidism, raynauds disease, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue, and bells palsy. All this happened after being hospitalized with pneumonia. I am 44 years old and for the last month have been having "old symptoms" as well as some FUN new ones! Last month I got the pleasure of adding peripheral neuropathy and hypokalemia.
I have reading everyones posts here for a while and feel a bond with everyone. It's hard (and frankly embarrassing) to try to explain to people about my illness, when on the outside, I look "healthy". So I don't tell people anymore than "I'm just tired". It saves time, and those strange looks of, "Yeah, right! You look fine to me!". I don't know exactly where to post, fibro board, ms board, or MG board, but I am certainly glad I found you guys!
