Thank you!
I hope I can convince my BF that we should not let the chance to get this house pass us by!! It's exactly what we need for our family - perfect size and yard, everything!
Hang in there. Hopefully we will find more energy soon!

Hello, just read that you have RA, on top of fibro. I was recently dx'd with RA and just can't believe the fatigue and I thought I was getting better, oh well, a new journey, doesn't look like a fun one from here!

Hi Hon. Just checking to see how you are doing. I miss hearing from you. Are you ok? Sorry I haven't heard from you. I have not been doing good myself. I need to have a cat scan for my stomach and an MRI for the hemotome on the back of my left leg. I have been in a lot of pain. I want to wish you and your family a Very Happy Easter. Look forward to hearing from you. Love. Ellie

I know what you mean when you say you are tired of being tired. I just started adderall and it seems to help. I pray you get energy.

Close Fibromyalgia
I have had fibro and cfs since 1994. It wasn't too bad at first, but it steadily got worse and worse. I had to go on disability in 2002. I stay really tired all the time & most of the time I feel as if I have worst case of flu in the world. I also have RA, Osteoarth, & emphysema. I can barely keep up with the housework, & after cooking one meal a day I am done for the day, most days.My son that lives with us helps me a lot.Do any of you have to lay down a lot?Thanks

Close Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Have been dx with fibro and cfs. I think most of the time the cfs is worse than fibro. So tired can hardly do anything longer than 10 minutes and have to rest. Some days can't do even that. I also have ra and osteoarthritis, and emphezema.I have a husband two sons, six grandchildren and two great grandchildren. I am 65. Try to keep positive attitude
