MDJunction to me

cinderella"MDJunction to me is a life saver... when i first was diagnosed with Scheuermann's Disease i wrote a message to a page i found on google, hoping that they could help me.... you'd never know it but that weird feeling (you know that one where it feels like someone actually cares) came over me when i opened my email next day to find that someone on the other side of the world (at the American Medical Library)had read my message while i was sleeping, and there low and behold was the address to MDJunction.... well it is everything to me, i live it breathe it and love it!!!!! I have found many people who are struggling with similar issues banding together to help each other. It is the best place in the world, and i couldn't think of another place to go to meet so many lovely people....

thanks MDJunction

Question..Does your rheumy push on pressure points each time you visit? Mine does and it's really getting under my skin. I hate it. She knows I hurt and most of them will hurt worse after she does. I have Firbo so she's not diagnosing me. Why push??? Im letting her know she needs to quit it!
Doing my best to hold on to God's unchanging hand! Praying for healing for all my Fibromites.

I'm an Advocate

To see what tender points you have at each visit, you could have been dx'd with 13 out of 18 initially but it can change over time like it does for many. I have 18 of 18 now and they still check mine everytime. I agree it hurts like hell.
I suffer from Rapid Progressive MS, Lupus, Fibromyalgia, Epilepsy, Migraines, Neuropathy, IBS, Narcolepsy, Arrythmia, Arthritis and too much more complete list on profile.

"Just because we have the right to disagree with a person, does NOT give us the right to disrespect that person."

I'm not currently active due to many personal and medical issues. I will not be participating in MDJ for awhile, my thoughts and prayers are with everyone. I hope everyone is well and I appreciate all of the thoughts, kind words and messages. I have tried to respond as much as possible and apologize if I have not gotten back to everyone. Love & Hugs, Stacey
