"I HAVE FIBROMYALGIA AND I WANT TO SUPPORT OTHERS WHO HAVE IT AS WELL." (runningwolf1)

MDJunction to me

"I have been struggling with Fibromyalgia, Bipolar, Anxiety, Post traumatic Syndrome for quite some time and pretty much going it alone. I stumbled across MDJunction by accident. I stayed in the shadows and just watched for four days and then I joined, feeling relieved and excited to have found a safe place with alot of folks that I could relate to . It's proove to be medically and emotionally
helpful to me and now I can't go a day without coming in at least 4 or five times a day! I Love my family here.

 Thank you, that makes sense to me, and it was weird when I tried to look for it on google that it thought I spelled it wrong but I hadn't.

 It means things like clothes hurt you . Its not pleasant having the clothes you wear give you pain.
I have dystonia, neuropathy, gerd, arthritis, and fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel and other ailments. I enjoy embroidery,music, and reading my Bible and Christian books. I love to bake. I try to be very supportive and positive.

 Oh yes, I can understand that..... sometimes my body hurts so badly that clothes or anything touching me can bring me to tears...........In fact one of the things I had mentioned to my doctors years ago,

that had them wondering what the heck was wrong with me.... was that rather suddenly the bed sheets hurt my feet so badly I couldn't sleep, even if they were on loose and not tucked, by now I am used to my feet hurting even when I first wake up in the morning............ you would think I had walked 20 miles in my sleep every night.

 Sometimes my legs feel like I ran in a marathon. I wake up and wish i could float out of bed.
