MDJunction to me

Kelti"MDJ has been a saving grace for me. It has taken from me that feeling of being so alone in the management of my Bipolar Disorder. I am not alone any more!! The friends on MDJ that I have made have kept me going. I am more at peace with myself now, thanks to all the people here on MDJ. I thank  God for each one of them.  MDJunction  is the place of Hope." (Kelti)

A little about me: I'm a 38 year old woman. I live in Minnesota with my boyfriend George and his 10 year old daughter who he has partial custody of.

I worked for a major insurance company in Minnesota before Fibro hit hard and I wasn't able to maintain the job. I recently graduated with my B.A. in English and just got a job with a physicians group as a medical office assistant.

I have Fibromyalgia, Diabetes II, plus the high blood pressure and high cholesteral that come with that. I had
Gastric Bypass Surgery in 2005, lost about 80 lbs, and have maintained the loss. I also believe I have something called DISH (diffuse idiopathic skeletal hypertosis) or undifferentiated inflammatory arthritis but haven't gotten a diagnosis. I have bone spurs on the front part of my C5-C7 vertebrea that are slowly bridging together, but my discs have little degeneration.

I do my best to enjoy the summer weather her in MN, and tend to hibernate in the winter. I have two cats named Astro and Aboo who I love dearly, and who my boyfriend is getting used to.

George and I plan on getting married sooner than later, but we think we should be in a little better fnancial stability before then so we can actually have a small wedding.

I love to read, crochet, cross-stitch, watch comedy shows and movies, hang out with friends, and read.
