About Me
I am a woman with a lot of living yet to do, and a disease that keeps trying to slow me down. I have a husband and two wonderful children. I am an educational sign language interpreter. I am also very involved in my church, including the children's and women's ministries. I am just a very outgoing, upstanding, always on the move kinda girl. My style is very relaxed, because comfort is key.
Interests
I love spending time with friends and family, making people laugh, reading, and funny movies.

Close Fibromyalgia
I'm not sure how long I've really had fibromyalgia, I had a couple of really bad years medically, and then contracted CMV when I was pregnant. I try to not let it slow me down, but I really struggle to stay in the game....
Treatments
- Cymbalta Not Working
- So far it's only making me sleepy, and I'm up to 90mg
- Yoga Working / Worked
- Helps to relieve the knots, but have to be careful how much I do it, too much is not a good thing
- Prayer Working / Worked
- Just knowing that God is there beside me, coping with me, and hearing my prayer helps.
- Chiropractic Adjustment Not Working
- Pain, Pain, Pain!!!!! Too much pain to say it helped
- Trazodone Not Working
- Did nothing for me
- Effexor Too Soon to Tell
- so far, I have increased energy each day that I've taken it....and am feeling better, but it's still too soon to tell
Close TMJ
After having my son 3 years ago, I had constant migraines for 6 months, I was finally diagnosed with TMJ as well as some other things as a result
Treatments
- Ibuprofen Somewhat Helpful
- When I get tmj pain it's the only otc drug that helps
- Prayer Working / Worked
- When the pain is bad, it always helps. It doesn' take the pain away, but I cope better.
- Ibuprofen Working / Worked
- Advil is the only otc medicine that helps with the intense pain of tmj flair ups for me
- Physical Therapy Working / Worked
- makes it 90% better, until my next flair up
Open Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
After being diagnosed with high insulin obgyn decided I had pcos, had difficulty getting pregnant, found a great ob, started metformin and was pregnant in no time!
Treatments
- Depo-Provera Not Working
- Metformin Working / Worked
- Was pregnant in no time after starting metformin!
- Prayer Working / Worked
- God has helped me through some very scary times, and pregnancy. Without prayer, I don't know that I would have made it.
- Eating Healthier Foods Working / Worked
- A healthy lower in carb diet really helps
- Metformin Working / Worked
- Helps to break up cysts, and helped to prepare my body for pregnancy and sustain the pregnancy
Open Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Went to a behavioral psychologist for TMJ, admitted mutiple events of sexual molestation as a child and was diagnosed with ptsd, since then I get better all the time.
Treatments
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked
- Admitting what i'd lied about for so many years helped, and then identifying my negative behaviors nad how to deal with them was very helpful
- Prayer Working / Worked
- It wasn't until I started looking to God that I made any progress on recovery from the events that started it all. Without being able to talk to God, my recovery would not continue the way that it has. God is Good!
- Trazodone Not Working
- Wired me for sound!
