Blog Post on July 27, 2008 by I Will Not Let My Fibromyalgia Run My Life
I too would love to find releive without meds but it seems impossible. Water therapy helps alot (if the water is warm). And those Flector patches are great. I have not been able to work in 6 years. I am a very hyper person and love to volunteer at least but i cannot even function through the day. I have 2 kids at home still and they help but trying to get them to understand is hard.
Sometimes the depression sinks in like today and I feel so defeated. I left my hubby after over 20 years of marriage cause i felt like i was holding everyone back. I get mood swings and panic attacks. I don't know what kind of doc to see as the ortho and he is great, i have been seeing him and the pain clinic for about 10 years. It is ridiculous about the disability the stress of being tight for money is killing me. Schools going back I have on in Iraq and one in college, he's in 10th in an early program and a daughter that is a cheerleader in competitins and i have missed so many of their games the last 2 years and they are hurt by it. Sitting in the bleachers for 3 hours or more is unbearable. Before that I spent almost everyday volunteering in the libraries or the kids classrooms now i can't do crap. The doc says now that i basically have to live with it there is nothing they can do. I feel like I should be in a wheelchair at times it gets so bad. Thanks for listening Lorena
