Many congrats! I also recently got put in support group even though I felt a bit of a fraud as my health has got better.But I decided to tell them what I was like at my worst as you just don't know how fibro can change! Not sure if mine is back paid so will have to find out.Iam so pleased for you as it is one less stress and worry off our backs! Xxx
