MDJunction to me

"I have been struggling with Fibromyalgia, Bipolar, Anxiety, Post traumatic Syndrome for quite some time and pretty much going it alone. I stumbled across MDJunction by accident. I stayed in the shadows and just watched for four days and then I joined, feeling relieved and excited to have found a safe place with alot of folks that I could relate to . It's proove to be medically and emotionally
helpful to me and now I can't go a day without coming in at least 4 or five times a day! I Love my family here.

hi, my name is suzanne and I was just recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia.I have been suffering from it for almost 2yrs. I had to go through many tests and qiute a few dirty looks from dr's. almost nobody believed me about the pain and fatique I was experiencing.I was told numerous times it was symptoms from being bi-polar. I knew it was much more than that. It took alot of perseverance and office visits before I could convince th dr's otherwise. I have many many questions and will post them (hopefully) in the correct forum. thanks!!
