Close Fibromyalgia
I have fibromyalgia since 2001; finally diagnosed in 2003. I struggle day to day with the pain, fibro fog, stiffness, depression. My doctor has yet to find the best treatment for me. I get some relief from the medications. I'am a mother of two daughter's and grandma to two grandson's.
Treatments
- Aqua Therapy Working / Worked
- Clonazepam Working / Worked
- I quit taking this medicine 3 months ago. Yes I still have problems sleeping at times, but I can't handle the side affects.
- Cyclobenzaprine Somewhat Helpful
- makes me droggy, takes me awhile to get it together in the morning. I stopped taking this med 3 months ago. Trying to get off meds that have too many side affects.
- Cymbalta Not Working
- Ok been taking this med for just under a year now. DO NOT STOP THIS MED COLD TURKEY...YOU WILL FEEL LIKE YOU ARE DYING!!! I wish my dr. would have explained the side affects of this med. I want to get off of it but found out the hard way you need to wean yourself off slowly and then you will still have side affects for 6 to 8 weeks. I wish I would have know this before taking it! Beware of this one!

Open Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
I was diagnosed with IBS in 1989 at the age of 26. At first I was on a medication for the pain, can't remeber what it was. Since I have had no treatment at all. The doctor seems to think I don't need any I guess.
Treatments
- Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Somewhat Helpful
- I try to stay away from the foods I know trigger attacks.
Open Asthma
Type: Adult AsthmaI'm on albuterol, suppose to be on advair also but it's too expensive for me. I don't have insurance. I did alot better when on advair.

Open Healthy Relationships
There isn't enought space to tell my story!!! The last relationship I was in was verbally and physically abusive. We were only together for alittle over a year. Yeah it took me that long to let things sink in and realize I had to get out. I have recently met a gentleman and yes I can say gentleman because he is wonderful in so many ways not just to me but all he is around. He has boosted my self-esteem and self worth in such a big way. It's a very new relationship and just taking our time.
