    • About Me

      I was diagnosed with fibro 29 years ago. I am truly a home body. Always have been, although the fibro has kept me in even more. I enjoy keeping in contact with others who have this disease, for encouragement and support. Some days a message sent to me can be the nicest thing to happen all day!

    • Interests

      My interests are mostly artistic because I can no longer do the sports I once did. I knit, crochet, draw, paint, make jewelry, sew, cook, make cards, stamp...You can view my latest works in my photo section.

    • Close Fibromyalgia

      I have had fibro for about 29 years.

      Treatments

      Acupuncture Not Working
      It did not work, and it hurt a lot.
      Aqua Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      It relaxes me. Best when water is not too hot.
      Heat Somewhat Helpful
      Helps in desperate times.
      Neurontin Not Working
      Also gives me a migraine.
    • Close Caring For Aging Parents

      My parents are in the last stages of living by themselves. I will soon need to move 1,000 miles to help care for them.

    • Open Physical & Emotional Abuse

      My father is a verbal abuser to me and my stepmother. She has stayed with him for 50 years and managed to accept her life. I have never been able to accept his treatment of me, and don't think I ever will.

      Treatments

      Leave Working / Worked
      I moved 1,000 away from my home to put distance between me and my father.
      Talking Working / Worked
      I have one life-long girlfriend whose father is like mine, in fact the two men were school friends. She understands my struggles and can empathize with me.
