News about Fibromyalgia.... ...... ....... Okay it's not like cancer research or pretty much anything else... nothing new. *sigh* The last big thing was something I believe I mentioned already about should have a Neurologist & Rheumatologist (spelling?) working in tandem. I don't see my Neurologist until March to tell him. Still, will it make a difference? They both have permission to send notes to each other already. If anyone knows anything else new about Fibromyalgia they might have heard in passing, on the news, etc... please let me know!!
Shrink this!... Okay found a new Psychologist. I think she will be much better than the last. She is closer... in Hampstead vs Portsmouth, so about 10 miles closer. Found out there is a name for what I am going through...actually WE (Garrick & I) are going through. Basically "Adjustment". It's when something, like illness, effect a marriage and both parties need to, well, adjust to it. I got a homework assignment out of it. When someone says something to me that upsets me, I need to write it down and write how I am feeling at the time of it. Garrick doesn't have any homework.
Princess & the Pea... One of the problems I have with my FM is achiness. When I go to bed, I have to make sure there are no wrinkles in the sheets below my back, AND I have to make sure my top is pulled all the way down to. Silly right? But I have to or the wrinkles from either can cause back pain that can last the whole next day. I call it Princess & the Pea Syndrome because I bet the FM has made me so sensitive, I could pass that test with 100 mattresses and one tiny pea hidden in them... SERIOUSLY!
So what do you think? Also I wanted to ask everyone if they know anyone with Fibromyalgia or have it themselves. Apparently this is one of the syndromes on the rise AND may soldiers who have PTSD, who don't get enough help, their PTSD can become Fibromyalgia. Sick, right? Talk to me! Let me know what you think of my blog. What can I do to improve it? I want to know! I believe you can leave messages on here without following, but...why don't you follow me? :)
