As I am only 27 years old you can imagine the depression I have suffered just for not knowing what was causing so many different problems. I have been likely to have fibro on several occassions and currently prescribed Lyrica but I do not take the medication well I do not consume much of the 20+ perscriptions given to me. I also have TMJ (diagnosed 1 week after falling from a balance beam in the military). I am a veteran from the Army, currently with limited medical insurance. I love just going with the flow to relax and it seems looser on the strain of my shoulders. It' s amazing how the internet knew more about my symptoms than the VA Hospitals and some outside physicians..known from experience. Not sure what's next or which way to go...Not sure how I made it to this page and actually responded. But it hurts inside and out.

Can't believe I touched on this site a mere 8 days too late for this fibro awareness campaign! Wish I had caught on sooner.

Yes Joan Chappell the fibromite who invited 62 people to enjoy her bedside manner during her fund raising awareness coffee morning, raised over £500 for the cause and got exposure on local radio to help raise FM awareness. Sorry no website yet (soon under construction) but they cannot stop me from writing and I am very busy blogging or weblogging. Take care, keep well and think positive. A real belly laugh is as good as an aerobic work-out. Find something to laugh at and enjoy.
