How many of you have a blood-related family member with Fibro? My grandmother had it. The docs thought that she had lupus, but that was back in the 50's and towards the end of her life, she was still so, so sick, and the lupus tests came up negative. So either she had lupus, RA, and fibro, or RA and Fibro. She died in '94, before Fibro was really very well known. My mother and my aunt (her two girls) both say that I am much worse off than she was, and they truly believe that is what she had. I don't believe the docs when they say it's not genetic, because I believe it is.
Do you have anyone in your family with it?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
