I happened upon these two videos which were the perfect antidote to the article posted yesterday that had my stomach churning with anger.

I don't know who this guy is, but I love him.

Understanding & humor--great antidotes.

He is so good and knows his stuff on fibro. I had the physical tenderpoint test, surprised some do it now.

I guess just feeling like crap qualifies you as fibro, NOT!!

Thanks

I've seen articles before he has written on fibro.

I love this guy - knows a lot about fibro and he is funny too. A lot of Drs could learn a lot from him. I would like to see a full lecture/discussion by him about fibro. Wasn't it funny when he kept changing clothes in the 2nd video. Long time ago my medical Dr at the time didn't believe I had fibro because I didn't jump off the table when he touched the tenderpoints - just that they hurt a lot when touched wasn't enough for him - at that time I had already been diagnosed by a reputable rheumy.

Thanks this cheered me up - I just had a stressful conversation with the car insurance company - I think they have lost their minds - now I have to find a new company - a task that is anxiety producing for me.

I forwarded links to this to my rheumy. We shall start a chain of happiness tor FMers everywhere!

Or something like that....
