Hello group!
I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia,polymyalgia,giant cell
disease,neuropathy,osteoporosis,diabetes,high blood pressure,
depression,and COPD. Sounds like a nightmare, and it has been.
Getting up is a daily struggle, as I'm in pain more than I'm not. I
don't think I've had a pain-free day in years. I was diagnosed with
Fibromyalgia four years ago. I had a wonderful position working with
the goverment, and I loved my job. I ended up taking an early
retirement, as I woke up one morning, around 3:30a.m. feeling as if I
were hit by a truck! Or should I say run over by a convoy! From
that
day on, my life has changed tremendously. I try to remember the
Twelve Step Program, and live (one day at a time.) At times, it is
(one minute at a time.) We have to remember, we still are the same
people we were before this illness. We need to cope, as we help each
other in our daily walk. I'm looking forward to hearing from you
all,
and hoping we all learn to deal with this one day at a time together.
Feel free to email me, or chat!
