Close Fibromyalgia
Diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 1979, Asthma, COPD, Epstein-Barr, in 1991 and NF1 in 2000. Was told that Fibromyalgia often comes out of trauma which makes perfect sense since I was sexually abused by my father from age 2 to 18 and then broke my neck in a horrible car accident in 1973/New Year's Eve hit by a drunk from behind in a Ford Pinto.
