I started having a flame up yesterday morning but fought though it all day at work. Was feeling horrible all night last night and this morning when I woke up, so I called off work and went back to bed.

When I wake up today my fiancee is all mad at me, yelling and throwing a fit because SHE has to go to work when SHE is sick is how I'm playing all of this Fibromyalgia up....so now she says she is done and leaving.

My mom use to say God dont like ugly and he aint to fond of pretty. Wow that speaks loudly to me.

What we go through in life dont dictate who we are going to be or who we are only we have the control over our lives to do that. Never give up and always follow your dreams.

I am not a doctor and my advice is purely from my own experiences. I will always be here for you all if you need me just pm me anytime.

So sorry you are going through the Fibro plus having to go through thing with your relationship. Hope she will start to understand. I was also fortune to have an hubby to understand and stand with me. I feel if a man complain it has got be something going on. But lesson learned on your behalf about how it is going to be taken if you complain. Try talking to her.

Hi, mark, sorry to hear she's acting this way. You can only control your reactions, not her. If she can't/won't understand, you may have to tell her goodbye.

i'm sorry that you're going through this. hopefully she will cool down and see that she was wrong, however if she doesn't you might be better off without her. if it's going to happen it's better now than after a few years of marriage. i know it's painful but have faith that everything will work out the way that it needs to in the end
