things have been so crazy! I went to that meeting on Mon the last day of Feb, and the doctor told my dad and siblings that I am NOT lying, that Fibro is real, that I have severe Fibro, etc., it was such a relief! However, when we got back from the doctor my dad was livid. He started yelling...

I can relate to this. I went from being very independent to living with my dad at 34 years old. I haven't been able to work in almost two years. I've even tried selling my blood plasma, but can't due to an autoimmune disease I have. I definitely feel like a burden, and my dad is there to...
