    About Me

    Hi! I am a married at-home-mom to four boys. Also have a daughter living on her own now with her new baby! I have recently been diagnosed with fibromyalgia after 17 months of wondering if I was dying or thinking I was insane (or both)! Apparently I've had this for alot longer than that, tho. I would really like to hear from anyone who is in my shoes and get some pointers as to what works for them with this daily continuous struggle. I look forward to meeting you! :)

    Interests

    Watching my beautiful children, listening to them singing, and being the best wife I can be, which is really not much of one at all. What kind of marriage can survive this crap?! He needs to run away and find someone else to be a real wife. I always thought I would be a great wife, (even tho I hate cooking!) But I fail this wife thing too, now. FMS, maybe it is from Hell...I don't know.

      Treatments

      Elavil Not Working
      Took for 7 days. Prescribed to get me to that "right" kind of sleep. HA! Kept me wired! No longer taking it.
      Flexeril Somewhat Helpful
      Klonopin Not Working
      Taken for 4 days so far at bedtime. Supposed to knock me out. NOT!! Seems to take the edge off anxiety though.
      Lyrica Not Working
      Stopped taking it after 6.5 weeks. Did help a little for pain at first, then magnified pain by 1000. Messed with my head big time.
