I just wanted to introduce myself, I joined a few days ago and I am still trying to figure things out. I haven't been in one of these groups before. I was diagnosed with Fibro about a month ago. I was in a car accident where someone rear-ended me in traffic on the highway in October of 2006. I was also rear-ended again last month but not as bad. It made everything hurt worse for a while. My life has not been the same since. I have seen many doctors, some that have made me cry every time that I saw them, some that have rolled their eyes at me and told me there was nothing else they could do for me. Others insisted that I get more injections, and I refused after having so many with no relief. I have been through 2 physical therapy programs, massage therapy, and I have taken so many medications I have trouble remembering them all. I am seeing a doctor now that may be okay. I don't trust him yet because of my recent experience with doctors. Anyway, besides the Fibro, I have a beautiful cat that I adore. He is one of the only things that can make me extremely happy (and warm in the winter, he makes a good heating pad). I go to school part time and work 2 jobs. I have been married for a little over 4 years, and our relationship hasn't been the same since my accident. I don't really have anyone that understands what I am going through so I am happy to have found this site. You all seem to be wonderful people going through some of the same things I myself am experiencing. I hope to learn of things that work for other people and find comfort in knowing that I am really not alone in this. Thanks for listerning!
