I've had fibromyalgia for about 30 years, but I didn't know what it was called until I got an actual diagnosis about twelve years ago. My ebbs and flows from barely noticeable to totally debilitating every couple of years and up and down every few weeks within those years. Right now, I'm in a good place with it - I can run errands and such despite feeling a bit unwell - after two years of being pretty incapacitated by it (not being able to drive, home-bound, and such). After a year of appointments, I've had a great deal of help from the Fibromyalgia Treatment and Learning Center in Sacramento, CA, run by a rheumatologist and fibromyalgia researcher who seeks to treat the disease as naturally as possible (after extensive and detailed labs). Others I know have also been helped at this clinic. So, I just wanted to toss out this bit of info, hoping it might be helpful to someone. Blessings to each of you!
