<quoted text>Sorry to say, that is just not true. Not sure where you get your info but I was and had been for years actively involved in softball, work and raising my kids when I was first diagnosed. It's people like you that make patients like us have a harder time living with this debilitating illness.

<quoted text>I had a lady last week with oozing sore covering her lower extremeties who claimed up and down it was lupus. And demanded that she get disability. Turns out she had a severe case of scabies. Truly disgusting stuff.

<quoted text>Computer ate my book sized post, catch you later pose doctor. If ya dont have anythng good to say, dud, dont talk to cpp's patients afflicted with this and tell em how it is. You know nothing as cramer would say. Ive had it 30 years and its gotten progressively worse.
got it, when IT didnt exist. Probably BORN with it, but an injury made it manifest itself, while I was in the Military. yes I'm a woman and no I didn't get service connected disability. 19 years old and it has plagued me CONSTANTLY since. I am about to be 49. Under these circumstances would that make YOU or Most people in to a nice, cheerful bright sunny personality. Being a Christian and forced to lie to get ANYTHING for it. Thats why I have a REAL problem with liars DOCTOR, because for YEARS I was forced to BE A LIAR, when it was against everything I stood for./Can you imagine trying to make up for that with the Lord. Ya dont, ya figure, well I'm a sinner anyway, so why not be just a tad bit "badder", cause you are scewed one way or another, when it comes to all things Christain. Yes I ACTED OUT. Woulsd I have, if it hadn't been for this medical problem, it's more likely than not that NO I would not have. Very depressing, this. Yes I have a real problem with lying, because I was a liar for many years, out of necessity, then a drug seeker liar or not. It was ALL bad. I worked till i couldnt any more, this took away my sense of value, never finished college or anything else I started. Loser, it screamed when it took away my career in the Military and jobs as well. Twenty six years of marraige. In the beggining it (the progressive disease) was not nearly as bad, manifestation wise or debilitating, as it is now. marital dificulties, that can be traced back to this crap, if ya look hard enough, oh yessiree Buddy! MY MARRAIGE, MY LIFE! Who the heck would ask for that, Dr. Snake oil. Peddle your tom foolery elsewhere, we are not amused. Real, you bet your arse it real, and it stole my life. I want it Back, but that's not how it works Doc. Thems some sour lemons, nobody wants lemonade from that. Oh and Bite Me! Sincerely, Mysticcherokee

This the most accurate I read. I picked up the problem in Vietnam at age 19. Combat stress,Agent Orange,a virus, injuries, don't really know? Diet, restorative sleep,low impact activity.Watch
what You eat. All the additives in the food. Alcohol, smoking and
we know those cause problems. The toxins compound the problem. And of course stress. I was diagnosed with PTSD some 30 years ago and when treatment was started and it did take time and reduced my stress level I was able to sleep a little better and bring down
my anxiety level. Depression can be a consequence of this condition. Although I have taken SSRIs for it. I don't like Meds and they are a complication with Migraines which can be a serious complication of fibromyalgia. Improving the quality of life is the main goal, few people really get cured, but everyone is different on what works. And lastly someone in Your life whether it be a significant other, family. Love in Your life can sure make You feel better and the support You and others have for one another.

First of all, Fibro was completely made up as Dr's were tired of having to listen to crazy women go on and on.
Now they just hand out the Lyrica, Neurotin, Lidoderm patches, Lexapro and the hydro 10mgs. Hoping to be rid of them for the next 90 days. Wow what a bunch of loons. I know I treat them.
