Hi, i am new to the site, i have been living with fibro since 2002 at least that is when i was diagnosed with it. I have some good days and then the days that i call my tin man days. My joints get stiff and most of my body hurts. I am on medication for this and take pain pills for when the pain gets to be to much, it will only dull the pain but it is some relief. Tired is my middle name my nights are long and some times no sleep. I try to look on the bright side of things and keep my chin up, for other then this i have a wonderful husband and kids who i love dearly. I am happy i found this site on facebook, it will be nice to talk with others that have the same problem though i would not wish this on my worst enemy.
 
Hi bajamama... and welcome to the forum! Your name for the bad days made me smile... that's very descriptive and fitting! :lol:

I'm glad to hear that you seem to have a good support system with your husband and kids... sometimes it feels as if that's half the battle, just knowing that someone understands what you're dealing with.
