Hi, my name is Elizabeth, I have had fms for about 8 years diagnosed. I have little support from friends and family for my illness. I have 4 kids ages ranging from 15 down to 1. (3 girls one boy)

That is all I can think of to share, my life really isn't all that exciting.

Thanks for listening.

Elizabeth

Welcome, Elizabeth, I am so glad that you have joined this group. You will find alot of people who are willing to listen and also give you advice. I have had fibro for almost half my life and I still need support from my friends here. I hope that you will feel that you are cared about here also.

I am sorry that you have to go through where your family and friends does not really support you. That is common with Fibro sufferers.

{{Soft & Gentle Hugs}} to you my friend

Welcome Elizabeth. This group is here for you and like everyone else has said you have come to the right place. You will find that there will be days that people are in very good moods, and then there are days that some us need a good cry or a shoulder to lean on or a punching bag. We are all here for a reason, and that is to be here for each other.

I just want to welcome you to the group and say that no matter what you feel at any point of any day, its okay. This illness is an emotional roller coaster ride with no instructions and no driving manual. We cant slame the brakes when a flare up arises and we cant accelerate the gas to make it speed up and drive through it. I wish we could though.

All we can do is hop on this journey together and be supportive of each other along the way.

If you need anything, dont hesitate to IM me at anytime. I will get back to any of you just as quickly as I can. This is an amazing group of people, and I truly mean it.

When the world says give up, hope whispers give it one more try... unknown
