    • Close Fibromyalgia

      I’ve had fibro since the 80's but didn't have a name for my assorted complaints until 1998. Once I knew what I was dealing with I had a direction to go, sometimes it’s the right direction and other times painfully wrong. At the present I have reached a moderate comfort zone.
