Darkqueene from the Mystical Island

Yes, it is fibromyalgia (sp), I'd have to take a moment to look up the proper spelling so that's why I abreviate (fms). I've had it for years. Most of my life undetected. Dr's just said it was all in my head so I went for counciling (which didn't hurt me any) but Dr's said it wasn't in my head so I went back and kept looking for a Dr that would listen to me. My mother died from lupus and it was explained to me that fms was a weakened version of lupus that wouldn't kill me but some days I might wish it did. lol If you have it, everyday you wake up feeling like you have the aches and pains of the flu without the vomiting. The minute your feet hit the floor they feel bruised. The exhaustion is overwhelming at times. Enough of the whinning Its a disease I can cope with now that I know its not "all in my head" Blessings to you, too, Darkqueene. Dragons are wonderful creatures and I can imagine the childrens delight of your storytelling.
