I decided to add a section here on my blog about dealing and living with fibromyalgia.
There is still so much I need to learn about this disorder and maybe through this learning proccess I can help educate other’s in learning to not pass judgement on someone who has it.
Fibro is very real, Take it from someone who has been living with it for many years now.
It started slowly when I was in my early 20′s and just got worse the older I got.
For the longest time I had no idea why I was waking up in such pain, why it had become difficult for me to walk or stand for long periods of time, why it was becoming harder and harder for me to do something as simple as wash my hair or lift a laundry basket.
One doctor’s apointment after another, trying one pill after another and nothing seemed to be working.
I thought I was going crazy. I had heard stories about fibro being all in your head and when you hear things like that the “crazy” feeling begins to feel true.
I’m hear to share my story and the proccess I went through to get diagnosed with the disorder.
It’s not an easy story to tell, and it’s sure to be a long one but it’s one I am willing to tell if it help’s me to understand more and maybe help someone else.
The key to everything is knowledge and educating myself and anyone else who’s willing to listen is one of the key’s to understanding.
