About Me
I have been a bi-polar suvivor for almost 40 years. As time goes on I have problem coping with the side effects of medication and have become increasingly isolated. I am very in tune to my moods and I fear that my lack of impulse control aka rudeness is a wee bit to much for most people so I avoid a lot of interactions by shopping on-line and distanceing myself from new people.

I was fortunate to discover in my early 20s that bi-polars just cannot drink alcahol and because of that I was better able then many others to control my life. I am on the high side. I always have been and am more likey to be manic then depressed. I have had 3 major depressive episodes in my life and each one did take a toll. I was successful in my career, in my marriage and with my children. I was lucky to marry the most wonderful man in the world who understood and helped me live. He died

Close Fibromyalgia
My fibromyalgia started 4 years ago. I was on Cymbalta but I could no longer take the side effects. I still have good days but the bad ones are getting much worse. I still need to learn more about my disease. I have pernicious anemia and cannot absorb B-12 and take shots every month to help.
Treatments

- I think this medication is a nightmare. Coming off it is worse then heroine.
- Vitamin B12 Working / Worked
- My B-12 shots are a lifeline and I cna tell right away when I am due for another.
