I have a wonderful Dr. who believes Fibromyalgia is real and treats me with the most repsect and diginity. I currently take Soma 350 mg at bedtime to help me sleep, several hypertensives medications, Requip for Restlessleg Syndrome and Xanax for anxiety.

I am a native Texan and love all animals. I rescue feral cats, have them sterilized and they live with us on our property. I also have a very old rescued doggie named Ginger who I absolutely love. Animals are great as they never judge us, love us no matter what and are always there for us when we are in pain or we are rejoicing.

Welcome to the group! It's so good to hear you've got an understanding doc who believes in Fibro! There's lots of us here that don't!

I know what you mean about being 'spent' by the time you get home from work. I had to quit working last year...after many years of feeling soo terrible and then turning into not being a reliable employee. But since you work at your hubby's law firm, maybe you have an understanding boss?!?!

Glad you found us...stick around and post away. Share, ask, answer, get opinions and give them as well. Talk, vent, cry and laugh too!! We do all of that here and there are soo many wonderful friends here...you'll love it! I do!!!

Texas native huh? Okay, then...ya'll come back now...ya hear??? LOL

Looking forward to getting to know you better!!

I don't know how you do it. It has to be extremely hard going to work and having Fibro. I could imagine that you are exhausted by the end of the day! Everyone here is extremely supportive and I learn something new all the time. I have received such wonderful advice and support. I know you will also. We are all here for each other.
