Do you have fibromyalgia?
Yes
About me:
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 6 years ago, but have struggled with the symptoms since about age 15. I had to stop working 3 years ago, and am still trudging through the process of applying for Social Security Disability. Despite all this, I am truly blessed to have a wonderful, supportive husband who always has my back. I have good days and I have bad days, but even the bad days can be made bearable with the love and support of caring people.

Hi, sorry I have not answered and added you as a friend. I am just trying to figure this site out. It seems confusing to me. Maybe it is just the fiber fog! I have not worked for three years either and am about ready to get a court date for disability. I dread filling out those horrid forms all over again. I have been turned down twice. It is tough to get. It must be wonderful having a husband who cares. Mine decided to have an affair with a coworker and leave when I got really sick. That is what is hardest for me. NO family and no support network , and NO meds. However I know things could be worse......that is a scarey thought....HA! HA!

Hi, Barbara. Thanks for the friendship. This is new for me to accept links, because I get sOOO much email and links on MySpace, etc, usually slow me down. But saw you guys photo and thought you just look like fun people.

What part of the country are you in? We're in Orlando. A little sprinkley today, but I took Miss Sassy Belle Devereaux dog to the dog park and had a good time anyway. She thinks it's Disney World.

Can barely keep up with About.com, FibroFix and having a life, so if you don't mind, email me at annehillebrand@bellsouth.net I bet you will like the silly animal photos I share with email friends. Clean jokes, too, without all the junk attached. If not, well, there you are.

(smile)

In HIS grip,

Annie
