Carrie, I've noticed that you seem to be very clever and consistent with your research of things, and I really admire that. I'm a "knowledge junkie" myself, and I haven't been able to do it quite as much lately with my fibro research because I've got my hands full setting up a website and podcast project that requires its own research.

This info you discovered is really interesting and valuable, and I encourage everyone to read it. If nothing else, it reinforces the fact that we're not imagining our conditions!

I was wondering if you could do some of your magic research on the connection that seems to be happening between fibro and neurologists. It's a potentially huge thing for all of us - they may be saying don't go to rheumies at all, go to neuros. So if you find out anything on it, could you let us know?

Again, I encourage EVERYONE to read what Carrie has found. Also, bear in mind that Chronic Fatigue is now being called ME (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) as well. Ricky Gervais even did a bit on it during his latest stand up show, "Fame". He joked about how we were just tired, but it WAS a joke. :-)

Our conditions are in a constant state of flux - we can't even keep a consistent name for them!

Well done, Carrie.

Love this website, have to finish reading it later! got to get my baby ready for school. Thank you so much for all the information that you share with us!
lots of hugs,
Michelle

ty carrie.. it was most interesting.. wish i had a printer.. but going to save it to my fav.. send it to my daughter to copy.. ty for sharing this... hugs...:)

Thank you very much, It btought back things that happened to me and now I know it was fibro then. Sitting at the pc desk too long not using good ergonomics. I went to a phystical therapist and worked on my posture because even while driving I was in constant pain in my back and chest. After making sure my posture is correct while I am doing anything even driving it has relieved alot of that type pain. Like sitting here too long and arms start hurting,Its aggravating my trigger points. Thank you again I am keeping this one under favorites to refer back to it.

I will see what I can find
