About Me
I'm a 45yr old wife (25yrs!) and mother of 2, girl 24/ boy 20. I was diagnosed with cyclical neutropenia, which is a condition where my bone marrow does not produce white blood cells, 8yrs ago. I've been in remission now for 3yrs. It's been a ruff road. Now my symptoms of every day life lead my doc. to think I have Fibro & CFS. Research I've done makes me a text book case. I'm passionate about all my mostly female furries and feathers. I've got an 11 yr old Golden, a 10 yr. old cat, a 1yr old black lab, and a 5 yr old ferret. My feathers are my hubbies - a 15yr old male African grey, a beautiful Sun Conure and a parakette. They never fail to put a smile on my face or to give me a chuckle. They are truely a God given joy!! I also enjoy flower gardening. I've been able to establish a wild life sanctuary in my back yard over the last 3yrs, attracting all sorts of bees, butterflies, and birds. Very Cool!!! Right now I am full time professional who has worked her way up the ladder and then down due to illness. It's all good. I've tried to update my photo, but failed. I have no real pic of myself, but thought I could be creative. Will have to ask the hubster. This blonde Medusa look suits me. I'm not this cute, but it's the closest I could get.

Close Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Hi, I'm a 45ry old female who has been diagnosed with neutropenia, an immune condition. I've had epstein bar, and now my primary thinks I have firbromyalgia. I feel I'm suffering more from CFS. I'm here to learn and communicate with others.
Treatments
- Paxil Working / Worked
- I was prescribed paxil for depression. It worked wonderful for the depression. The veil was deffinately lifted, but I didn't "feel" anything. I couldn't even cry under circumstances that people would normally cry. When I weened my self off, I had horrible side effects and eventually ended up in "lock down" for a week.
Close Fibromyalgia
I've just entered into what I guess you would call, the initial diagnosis phase. I think I have always had FM, but now that I'm older, it's harder to ignore. I can't do as much without ramifications. The brain fog assures me I'm not going crazy. It also explains my muscle weakness and dizziness. I'm looking to discus and learn.

Open Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
I was diagnosed with Fibro last summer/fall but my symtoms seem to be getting worse. My body constantly vibrates to varring degrees every day, my eyes occasionally move involuntarily, and my hands and arms get spasams and feel like dead weight. Time to go back to the dr. and hopefully get an MRI.
