      Love to collect fossils, especially shark. I have quite a few. My prized ones are two Megladons. One tooth is the size of my hand. Megladons were prehistoric sharks. The biggest tooth I have had to have come from a 70-ft. long shark. They are amazing. **TINY BABIES**; These baby sculptors are from a brilliant Artist, Camille Allen.She has a website, and her little babies are truly amazing. I hope to buy one some day. I was just drawn to them, the fine details, sweetest little faces. I admire people with such talent. God just blessed me with knockout looks.(OK, go ahead laugh, cause that really is a joke). lol

    • Close Fibromyalgia

      Chronic fibromyasses. Along with CFS, sleep apnea, myofascial pain, DDD, osteoarthritis, pinched nerve in cervical area. Lots of diffrent symptoms. Fibro is getting worse, and they say this isn't a progressive disease. The fatigue is always there.Hysterectomy induced menopause. I can sweat better than most men, even with my hormone "happy" patch on.

      Treatments

      5-HTP Somewhat Helpful
      Could not tell much of a change
      Cyclobenzaprine Working / Worked
      Only helps mildly
      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      Been on for three years. Maxium dosage of 120mg/day. It seems to help some, I think.
      Lyrica Not Working
      Started 5/9/07. We will see 06/05:Nope not working.Extreme leg cramps.
