    About Me

    Hi my name is Kim. I am a 40 year old married female with a 17 year old son. My son and I were e in a car accident 5 years ago and since that time have been diagnosed with depression, anxiety, chronic pain syndrome, fibromyalgia, sleep deprevation, and chronic fatigue syndrome. My husband is very supportive of my son and myself. It has been a hard fight that i often find myself asking why do i keep fighting. I am very limited on things i can do, just basic housework is a major chore. I feel very inadequate and worthless. I could really use some friends who can relate to my situation and maybe we can help each other and be a support for each other. Kim in Indy

    Interests

    movies, reading, sewing, playing games on pogo ( a game website) i like doing alot of things but i have had to give up so much because of my condition.

      Treatments

      Adderall Somewhat Helpful
      So far it is working pretty good. It does help with my memory, concentration and focusing issues. I also seem to have more energy while taking it.
      Aqua Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      This is wonderful. Although you have to take baby steps, over-doing can be harmful.
      Cyclobenzaprine Somewhat Helpful
      I have taken this medication for years. It is helpful but a little advice, it can knock you for a loop, so don't plan on doing alot of driving or handling alot of machinery.
      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      Cymbalta works well. It helps in a variety of ways. It helps with pain, depression etc. Good thing to try.
      Heat Somewhat Helpful
      Heat helps alot, however it really depends on the condition i am in. Sometimes ice works better.
      Morphine Working / Worked
      When I get in an extremely bad way I have to go to the emergency room and they give me morphine and steroids through an iv.
      Neurontin Not Working
      This particular medicine did not work to well on me.
      TENS Somewhat Helpful
      I own one of these devices. Alot of times it is very helpful, however there are times when it irritates it more.

      Chiropractic Adjustment Somewhat Helpful
      actually chiropractic treatment can work either way, i have found that it depends on the day and how i am feeling.
      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      this medication works well, it helps with pain but also with focusing and concentrating
      Flexeril Working / Worked
      i have been using flexeril for quite some time now. it works well
      Heat Working / Worked
      works well, moist heat is better
      Lidoderm Not Working
      these patches don't do anything for me
