oh yeah.

Today was Fibromyalgia Awareness Day.

For those of you who don't know, just imagine yourself in excruciating, crippling , 24/7, head to toe pain for the rest of your life.

Then think about maybe donating some money to research so people such as me and shrikalikadevi don't have to live like this.

Did you see Dr. Dean Edell last night? They ran this and I thought of you.

thanks.
I've been on anti-depressants for almost ten years because of my fibro.
Unfortunately, they carelessly put me on Paxil which is harder to withdraw from than heroin is.

That's what I thought you had told me... just found it interesting.

sorry- I'm usually not such a whiner, but I just feel a bit down tonight.

I vote for people making donations to my education fund, since I's poor and need the money...and, as a biochemist, will be dedicating as much time and effort as possible to figuring out fibro. :)
