"I have Fibro as well as RA" (lois7779)

MDJunction to me

Macv"For me, MDjunction has been a place where I can share my experiences
living with the very rare bone disease called Ollier's ( Enchondromatosis ) with the parents of children recently diagnosed. I can help them not to run
into the pitfalls my parents did when I was young, give them a bit of a view
from their child's perspective and simply be there to offer support and
hope to people who are scared and just had their lives upended. I also belong to a chronic pain group and it's been a Godsend to be able to actually
talk with others who understand what I'm dealing with. Besides them helping me through my tough times, I can be there to help them as well. Here too, I can use my years of experience to help others avoid pitfalls and it makes me feel good, gives my life more purpose. MDjunction brings people
together when their suffering, at their darkest and feeling alone in this world and allows some light to be brought back into their lives. HOPE, that's what
MDjunction means to me!

18 plus yrs. Why am I still explaining to spouse? It's a bunch of B.S.!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, as you can tell I'm not a happy camper. I get so tired of Whats for supper, did you wash uniforms, why are they still in dryer. Well its called I've done too much my spine feels like my muscles are underneath it and pushing it up. POP! What part don't hurt lets start there. List will be much easier and shorter.Thank god I'm off Lyrica but still having acid reflux. Now I've got to go ENT . My Fibro doc said that the reflux can damage the vocal cords. Okay.....40 pds and screwed up voice. Okay now I'll scream if I can. Tried Cymbaltia ended up in hospital, Lyrica, well I've said what that did. All these side effects. Makes you scared to try anything else. Back to the beginning, Why am I still explaining why I can't keep up with house. All kids are grown and married. So, when I feel this bad called eat a sandwich, go get something. I didn't stop working for pleasure...............HELLO!!! Wake the hell up I get tired of talking bout the pain very tired of explaining. Oh well, I have vented. Thank you for allowing me to bitch and its OKAY> Dizzy Devil Pinch W00t
