i know i asked this last year (or was it 07... *scratches head*).... but it's about that time i ask it again.

it's a hard question to answer but we all have to think about it.

how has fibro blessed your life?

The best thing that happend to me is that once I was given Diclofenafine (bad spelling) it stopped the terrible debilitating back pain that radiated through my hips down into my legs. On the 4th day of the drug, I woke up and didn't have to log-roll out of bed. I could actually push myself up for the first time with my arms. I have had 3 spinal fusions since 2001 and I thought I had to have a 4th one to stop the pain. Thank God!

I to am in discovering the new me,and miss my old self hurts alot kind like morning for a very close loved one that has died.
But I to am learning new things every day about this syndrome
that brings me closer and stronger to the new me. Yes I to when I have a so what normal day it is like walking down a golden street, in other words great and I hold and treasure every precious moment and memory of those good day. The biggest thing i have noticed about myself is being more sincere and loving ,understanding to those that suffer with pain ,sickness.

I choose my activities carefully. I choose what really is needed and important to me. I try to stay away from stressful situations and that is a blessing I guess.

You all on this site are a blessing too!
