 "I have Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain." (dwjames)

MDJunction to me

jayna01"My name is Jayna and I wanted to take this opportunity to say how much MDJunction has meant to me. I always felt so alone before I joined in April of 2012. I felt like there wasn't anyone that really cared about me and what I was going through. I felt like there was no one that would truly listen to me in what I was feeling. Nobody was there for me. That is before I found MDJ!

I have found and met such good people on these forums. I never ever knew there were such compassionate people before MDJ. It's also nice to know that I can come here anytime and get support for what I am feeling. I feel like I have met some wonderful life long friends. It is also an outlet for me to try and help other people that are hurting. It gives me a good feeling inside and gives me self confidence in helping other people.

I hope MDJ will be as good for you as it has been for me! Many Blessings and Much love." (jayna01)

This slide show is the simplest and most concise description of fibro I've watched yet. Its short and to the point and made me crazy because I couldn't fast forward fast enough through it. Next time someone asks me about fibro I'm going to send them the link:

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/tutorials/fibromyalgia/ htm/index.htm

Of course it HAS to mention exercise...grrrrrr. So if you have your loved ones watch it be prepared for the..."that video said you needed to exercise."

Thanks, Raynedae. That was a good, simple video about FMS, although I too wanted to fast forward it!! LOL

Thank you for the video that was the best video I have ever seen on FMS. I will be sharing that with all of my family and friends. Maybe even my SSD lawyer, he would probably like to have it to better understand what fibro really is.

I'm not a medical professional, I can only offer advice,if you need medical attention please see a medical professional.

Don’t compare your path with anybody else’s.
Your path is unique to you.

Thank you for sharing this. I am going to post it on other sites and use it to show my family and friends. I wanted to fast forward too. I'm like "Yeah I know this already! I feel it now!" LOL
