MDJunction to me

ITeach91"MD Junction has been a lifeline to me. The support and information I receive from group members is so important for me to maintain a good quality of life. I struggled with a diagnosis of adrenal insufficiency and did not know where to turn, but then I found MD and it has been one of the most important tools to help me to enjoy my life and stay as healthy as possible. We really are stronger together than we could ever be alone." (ITeach91)

right on. so how do you all think having fibro as a man is different than as a woman? Such as, I always knew there were more men out there with this illness but in general as men we tend to not talk about "pain" or our feelings very much. It may not be as bad as it was in the 50's and 60's but it still isnt as open for men as it is for women.

I, for one, feel a deep level of relief knowing that there are other men who understand some of the issues we have with fibro.
