I am going to do something a little different today. I am posting an article that I found today. It is about what it is like to live with Fibromyalgia. It is really important to me that people read this. I am still trying to come to terms with the fact that I will be living with this disease for the rest of my life. Some days I can't remember what I used to be like. Other days I remember and I am angry because I want the "real" me back. But that will never happen. This disease is incurable. There is no taking the right medicines and doing the right things and I will be cured and it will go away. I will have it, on some level or another, for the rest of my life. I don't know that people realize how debilitating it really is. So please, take the time to read the article, and especially the comments at the end. People have posted very real insight on how it feels to live with this disease and they make a lot of really good and valid points. Thank you guys! I will get off my soapbox now :)
