AshleyDuAnne I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia about 4 years ago. But I also have Chron's, IBS, Insomnia, Anxiety, Depression, Restless Leg Syndrome, Panic attacks, Chronic chest pains, Ulcers, Esophagitus and a few more to add to the list. My fiance, Nathan, takes good care of me, but I am struggling big time. I can hardly get dressed on my own sometimes, I have to hold onto a chair when I go to the bathroom so that I do not pass out. I have had surgery for erupting gallstones and I just have sooo many issues. I recently just found out that I have a giant blockage in my intestines.Which explains why I cant go and dont go to the bathroom/ have a bowel movement for months at a time. But I was being supported by Maine Care insurance, our state wide insurance and they pulled me due to budget cuts even though I am disabled. There is so much going on w me that I can't explain it all at once. But plain & simple I do not have a normal life and I cant live a normal life right now. Ive been denied over and over again for disability. Ive been through many doctors, to the point where I always know more about what I am talking about and whats going on with me then them. I have soo much stress and I cant eat normal. Ive done everything I physically can to help myself and now without insurance I feel like its over, all the time. Hey~ This is me venting!! Hope you don't mind..
