    About Me

    Hi I am a 38 yo mother of 3. a 10yo daughter and 5 yo twins, boy an dgirl. I was diagnosed with FM aprox 5years ago and it has been a battle for a long time for me to make it day to day. I also had guillain barre' syndrome twice in 88 which i think is the reason for my FM. I have a wonderful and supporting DH and my children are very understanding too about mommy hurtting most of the time. I am friendly outgoing and love to talk on the phone. I am here to create a support network for my FM and meet other people with it, and share stories and friendship.

    Interests

    I love to read , watch movies, listen to music, do cross stitch ( when i can and i am still learning) and i love online poker. Oh and i love to get out and about and drive places i havent been before. i also love to talk on the phone.

    • Close Fibromyalgia

      Hi i am a 38 mother of 3 kids, 2 being 5yo twins which is difficult to deal with. I have fibromyalgia and deal daily with not only that but neuropathy, carpel tunnel, arthritis, emphysema, COPD, depression and bi-polar disorder. I currently take a lot of medication but am listing the main ones here. I will be trying lyrica hopefully within the next week, i only have to wait for my doctors office to get preapproval from my health insurrance provider. wish me luck.

      Treatments

      Heat Somewhat Helpful
      when my joints and muscles are really inflamed i find that a heating pad or a hot bath and a nap afterwards can really help my pain level.
      Neurontin Working / Worked
      doesn't work for me
      Ultram Working / Worked
      it helps out a little but right now i am just taking it as a help for breakthrough pain.
    • Close Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS)

      I had guillain barre' in 1988 and now have fibromyalgia. I had the guillain barre' not once but twice. I think that is the cause of my fibromyalgia now. When i finally made it to the hospital i was on my death bed.

      Treatments

      Plasmapheresis Working / Worked
      I had to go through 2 cycles of plasmapheresis but it helped out so much.
      Supportive Care Working / Worked
      i was on life support for 5 days and it helped. it kept me alive.....
