My own experience with FM hasn't been one of wonderment. It is much the same for all of us. For years we are told that we're not sick, that it's all in our mind, that we're depressed, or that we are making it up. Then, when they finally decide we have FM, there is no cure, and in my case, the treatments made alot of things worse. To top it off, I did end up depressed for a long time. Its not a wonderful feeling to wake up one morning and realize you will never be all better. It almost cost me my marriage, and my daughter. Its a struggle to live and work every single day. And yet there are many of us out there who do just that. And many of us who can't. If you have friends or family with FM or CFS, be supportive, find out all you can, and just keep loving them. Together, we'll all try to get better.
This page is underconstruction. As time allows I will add information about FM and CFS (which are the same thing}...thanks for your patience.
