Hello!
My name is Bryan and I hail from Dallas, Texas. I'm new to the area and I am working as a chemistry post-doc at a university. It's an awful job, but I get to do what I enjoy so I can't complain. I'm pretty healthy barring my fibro, a bit of ADHD, and some nerve damage.
Believe it or not, I am in decent shape. I try and run 10 miles a day if time allows it, but my nerve damage prevents me from doing much strength training. I was diagnosed with fibro in 2005 due to severe pain and restless leg syndrome in my legs. As a result, I was fortunate enough to have gabapentin added to my cocktail of adderall, methadone, and testosterone. I'm 29 and I feel like a senior citizen taking this many medications (no offense to any older folks ).
Fibro has been more on my mind because lately, my legs have been getting worse and worse. On nights I don't run I am almost guaranteed no sleep due to pain and twitching. I hope to gain some knowledge on this forum and chat with some interesting folks as well.
