I'm disabled by multiple chronic illnesses; my dream is to get a novel published so I write when I can (though currenly working on a non-fiction book because the publisher offered me a contract!). I'm single, no kids, and have an awesome dog, an Akita, who is my best friend.

So, my sister Shari picked me up Tuesday (6/30) about half an hour later than she insisted I be ready -- as usual! It was a long 400+ mile drive, but …

HI,LEE,how are you doing today? I use to live in Grand Forks,N.D. how are you holding up? and doing and feeling?? do you get the free CFIDS chronicle? Take care CFS-FIBRO-LYME-RESEARCHER/Ed
Hey dear so good to hear from you. Your trip with your sister sounded fun only not the mixed up directions part. I wanted to send you a quick hug since you will be offline for awhile in hopes that you will get it before you leave. Have fun, and be safe, and let me know when you get back online. love and hugs D
here are some flowers for your pretty little self. Have you been having a good weekend?? Was good to get a wee cchat the other day... your road trips sound much fun, think i might start to do something like that!!!! I am beginning to feel a little better mentally... seeing the light at the end hopefully!!! Continue to be encouraged xx God Bless
Thinking of you and hoping you have a good Sunday. Let me know how you are doing. I had a decent day still having bad fatigue lately. Its all good. I managed to get a few things done today anyways. Take care and many huggies to you.
Hey I am back. First of all I hope you are doing ok today. I had a flareup and wasnt on long yesterday. I became so weak and fatigued with a headache. I am better now. I really enjoyed and appreciate you sharing your trip to the park with me. I love history I am a history buff. I fully understand not wanting to go shopping shooooooo it wears me out and I get so sensitive and easily irritated in that kind of environment. I cant tolerate it too long. And that is a long ride for you. I hate to hear you have lupus along with CFS. JenC on DS does too. She is from the UK. It just seems like when it rains it pours with CFS and our immune systems. I have all the symptoms of MS and have had for a year. I signed up for the Medicare advantage program today and thank God I will finally have insurance in a week. Hurray...I can finally get some tests ran. I hope you get to visit your neice and spend some time with your family. It helps to get out and do stuff sometimes as long as we dont overdo it. Let me know what you do. I hope you have a nice weekend. I wanta get over and see mom and dad Sunday. I try every sunday. I feel so blessed that both my parents are healthy and alive at age 73. Well my dear friend...It was so so good to hear from you and I loved your post about why more woman than men get CFS. You are smart and I appreciate you. hugs D
It took me a year to be diagnosed -- ruling everything else out - but got to see Daniel Peterson, who ID'd the syndrome. Been fighting it since 1991... now have depression, but not when I got sick. ):
I was diagnosed after coming back from Jordan with amoebic dysentery. It's mostly under control now, but flares still happen!
After first diagnosed with CFS in 1992, I was diagnosed with FM in 1997. Help!
