Beyond the Pain

It is a bit of a challenge to know where to begin this story.

I could begin the story of my struggles with Fibromyalgia by talking about the time when the PAIN first showed up in full force. And, that certainly is a much too memorable marker point. Or, I could harken back to the day I was diagnosed with Fibro’s evil twin: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Also a much too memorable day in my life.

In fact my story could fill a book. And, certainly one of my dreams is to turn these scribblings and musing into a book. But, for now I’ll keep the story short and focused, but anything but sweet.

I was officially diagnosed with Fibro in September of 2004.
