      From TunaMan January 14, 2008

      I wrote this poem several years ago and hope that you will enjoy it and that it may give comfort and reassurance into the meaning of life. It goes as follows: LIFE'S JOURNEY I pray that God will bless you At the start of each new day And grant you health and happiness And friends to share your way As you journey through this life To reach that Ultimate Goal May you find peace and happiness Deap within your soul The road is long and narrow Full of trials and sufferings too But you must continually endure it As the appropriate thing to do Each of us has a tunnel Either filled with thorns or roses We must travel through the thorny tunnel To achieve heaven and the roses.

  • Support Groups

    • Close Fibromyalgia

      In 1985 had Lymes Disease. Have had chronic pain and fatigue ever since. It has become worse over the years. Also get nasty migraine headaches. Survived a brain tumor in 1997. I have the worst time after working a shift or two at my job. Stress really makes it worse as well.

      Treatments

      Cyclobenzaprine Somewhat Helpful
      Makes me sleepy during the day.
      Cymbalta Somewhat Helpful
      I am taking it now, I don't really think it is helping anymore. It was at first with the depression,but not the pain.
      Effexor Working / Worked
      This worked for a while, but its effectiveness wore off.
      Elavil Somewhat Helpful
      Not using any more. More tired than I already am. Weight gain on this medication is also a problem.
    • Close Sexual Abuse

      I was molested by an Intern (doctor) when I was 10 years old. I was attacked by a ranch hand at a friends horse farm when I was 11. I was molested at knife point at age 11 or 12. I was raped when I was 13. Life just got really messed up after all of that.

    • Open Migraine Headaches

      I have had migraine headaches for as long as I can remember. I don't experience an aura before my headache, I just feel extremely tired. Sometimes they last for days, sometimes for hours. Not many things have helped.

      Treatments

      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
      chocolate is one of the main foods that trigger the headaches. I do not use cologne and can't handle being around those who do.
      Compazine Working / Worked
      haven't used for many years, did help the nausea and vomiting
      Feldene Not Working
      Did not help at all
