Thanks for sharing. Wish I had the guts to share but don't want everyone on my fb to know! It's a good article!

Excellent piece. I sometimes think if celebs would get it and other conditions they would get into the public domain more, but I wouldn't really wish illness on anyone.

Thanks for sharing Reykua

Props for metro for going there. It seems to get more publicity but not enough still. Many haven't an idea of its existence

Maybe one day it'll be as well knows as some of the other "famous" illnesses

Have a great day

Thanks for the link., I shared it on my Facebook page maybe my daughter will read it and be more understanding instead of making out I'm a bad mum and grandma for having to say sorry can't come today as I'm really tired and in a lot of pain. Sorry about the rant x

What an excellent article, some great points. Similar to no.5 I'm trying to get through to my doc that I'm depressed because I'm in pain & not that I'm in pain because I'm depressed (& I don't class it as real depression what I personally have - I've fought my way out of my black hole before and don't want to fall back down but due to my pain & fatigue sometimes I'm hanging on to the edge dangling down but have steps I take to make sure I don't let g)

Think I'll have to share this on fb

Wow, thanks for sharing!

I'm secretly hoping that my exboss read this on their way to work! Really great article and useful to begin explaining fibro.

That was very factual and all true, as a now 15 year sufferer I can say with hand on heart that write up got it spot on!
