My name is Jennifer. I'm 43, and I've been married for 22 years. We have 5 kids (18, 16, 16, 12 and 1.) We live just outside of Denver, Colorado.
I remember having some fibro symptoms as early as high school, but I wasn't diagnosed until 2003. I had terrible migraines for months, and when we finally got them somewhat under control, I had these funky pains all over the rest of my body. It took a few months to even see a doctor about it, because at first I thought I was crazy! Things hurt, but not in any way that made sense based on how my day had gone.... It all makes sense now, but I didn't even know how I was to START explaining this to a doctor!
Anyway, I found my here because I have a question which I posted over in General Discussion. As I posted it, it suggested I come here to introduce myself, so here I am! Hello everyone!
