Why wear a ribbon?

"I wear this ribbon because Alzheimer's in in our family, I have fibromyalgia, I'..." (igimom)

MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

I just joined this group and I am very happy to read about others who suffer from FMS. It is comforting to know that I am not the only one with these awful symptoms. Thank you all for sharing.

Hi mountainman welcome to the family. It was such a relief to me when I found this site and realized I was not alone in how I was feeling. I'm sure it won't be long and you'll be reading a post and go" I have that symptom"

Thank you, I am also an Aquarian I actually have had some bad experiences within the Medical field regarding Fibromyalgia. It is really sad to know that there are professionals that feel it is just a diagnoses for drup seekers. Now that I have been diagnosed I feel very determined to become an advocate and educator for Fibromyalgia patients and the general public. Have a Great 2008!!
