I'm not working, not married, no kids (don't want any); love the sunshine, beach, muscle cars, and spending time with my boyfriend. I was medically discharged from the Marine Corps in 2005 after serving 5 years. I grew up back and forth between the US and Indonesia, however, most of the years were spent in Indo. I have three brothers, no sisters. I'm the most aggressive, rebellious, and daring child. I pretty much set the pace for the family. I have 7 tattoos including a big skull on my back.

I was medically discharged from the Marine Corps in 2005 for severe asthma and a lumbar herniated disc. Docs could not explain the other symptoms till later that year I brought a pamphlet to them on fibromyalgia. I tested positive by tender point test that was done by 2 different docs at 2 different times. My life revolves around how i feel at the moment.
I injured my back early 2004 while on active duty, but the docs only asked for x-rays so didn't catch the real problem. Sent me back to full duty again and again. over a 5-6 months period I continued to worsen till one day on duty, my legs started falling out from under me. Then I got an MRI and they found a herniated disc in lower lumbar. After being medically discharged in 05, the VA dx me w DDD, and I have 2 more bulging discs above that one and they found the same thing in my neck.
I caught pneumonia in early 2001 while on active duty, and it took 7 docs to finally look at my x-ray and get it right. By then, the pneumonia had done it's damage. It took me 6 months to recover and ever since, I have never been able to breath the same again. Two years later, I finally got to see a pulmanoligist who made the diagnosis. My asthma continued to worsen till I ended up getting a med discharge. Military doctors suck!!
Served in the Marine Corps from 2000-2005. My MOS was Motor Transport, secondary MOS was Translator. Was medically retired. VA rating: 60%. Just started receiving SSDI, and DOD just canx my retiree benefits (b@$tards).
I'm half Indonesian (Sundanese and Javanese) and half Caucasian (Jewish, English,German, Scottish, & French), and my boyfriend is half Iranian (Persian) and half Caucasian (Texan). We both love each other's cultures and foods. He speaks some Farsi, Arabic, & other Middle Eastern languages, which he teaches me some. And I speak fluent Indonesian, some Malay, and some Sundanese dialect, which I teach him some, too. We both agree that half breeds are the most beautiful people in the world.
I've had insomnia for pretty much my whole life. I was a workaholic up until I injured my back in 2004. I always had to have several jobs just to keep me busy. Now, I'm not working do to a combination of medical problems, and always fatigued. I'm always tired but can't get deep sleep do to Fibromyalgia.
I grew up in a rough country with no child abuse laws and went to militarized schools majority of my childhood where being beaten and whipped was an everyday thing. I joined the US Marine Corps in 2000 and was medically discharged in 05. I never thought that i had anger issues, always assumed violence was a normal thing.
I've had IBS since 2002. It was alternating between C and D for years until recently. Now over the last year it's been more of a C.
had shingles on the palm of my R hand back in 2005. I started getting rashes on my lower stomach below belly button but above groin towards the right side near under wear line. The pain is on the right lower stomach and groin all the way around my R butt cheek and down my right leg to my toes.
i made my mom sign the divorce papers 1 month before going to USMC bootcamp
i get bad head aches that have all the symptoms of migraines with light n sound pain n nausea, but it's not technically a migraine because it's the whole head, not one side
my boy friend struggles with depression. i am joining this group to help be supportive of him.
got dx with this in March 09... mainly my R leg effected. it sucks.... good thing VA / Medicare covers awesome support hose for me.
mom has bi/po
