NahSG
Mother of five, married to the love of my life for 38 yrs strong.
Life has been long and harsh. Youngest son born with severe C.P. , function level 3-5 month old for 14 years. Life long health issues but I wouldn't have missed having him in our lives for anything. He finally succumbed to a hard life in 2005. After he passed away my body had what one Dr likened to a "physical breakdown". Much like one would suffer a mental breakdown but my mind stayed strong while my body gave up.
I cracked my back in highschool as a gymnast, but i never got it fixed or even treated, I just lived with the pain.
After five children by C-section, a hysterectomy with adhesion release (my uterus was attached to my intestines by scar tissue), lifting my 14-yr old like a baby and his wheelchair, my back finally gave out. If I worked at a counter or standing for more than 15 minutes my legs would just buckle and drop me to the ground. I finally had my back fused at L-5/S-1. Now I have arthritis in my spine and sciatica joints. My spine will eventually strangulate my spinal cord, leaving me with few choices.
I have Fibromyalgia and CFS on top of it all.
I have taken every drug, tried every protocol, done everything the medical community has suggested for Fibromyalgia and now to top it all off I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, with drug fillers as my trigger, so they can no longer throw more drugs at me wilLy-niLly
