 Thank you Teri. What do you mean when you say you just found out that fibro was real? Do you have fibro?

 I dont know of one. but I am sure that one could be found if you go to one of the national fibro sites. I do know that there is an awarness day. so thre should be some kind of place where you can donate for research. if you would like I could do some checking.

 i was finaly diagnosed in oct 2007. before that i was told all of this was a figment of my imagination. must have had a wild imagination. for years i struggled to do anything especially hold down a lob. so i guess the diagnosess was a releif.

 Thank you! I will also check further into. I just figured I'd start here. If you would like to help me with that I would appreciate it. Maybe we could post here and make people aware so that maybe friends, relatives or whoever would give to help support this disease. Thanks Linda
