Have you ever?!?!?!?!?

One of the other blogs I follow is a Fibromyalgia blog. Deb wrote this post, I edited it a bit to fit me, but I think it helps put perspective on this silent disease...

Have you ever ....
Heard of Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?


Had to ask a loved one not to hug you?

Slept an hour and a half, then awake the rest of the night?


Had to get out of bed because you were so stiff and sore?


Been so physically exhausted that you couldn't be on your feet long enough to shower?


Had your head throbbing and aching all day long?


Had excessive migraines headaches?


Felt like your neck was in pain could no longer hold up your head?

Had your arms and legs tingle and loose feeling?


Had your body ache continuously?




Felt like you had a sunburn on your skin .... but you don't?


Had shooting pains??


Stumbled or fell because you couldn't pick your leg up from total exhaustion?


Experienced Restless Leg Syndrome?


Felt like you had bugs crawling on you ... commonly called "The Creepy Crawlies?"

Had muscles that feel like ropes in your body?

Been out of control with your cognitive function?


Had depression or an anxiety attack?

 
Had everyone around you look at you like you are crazy because you "LOOK FINE", but really you feel absolutely miserable?

Welcome to my world... Have a great Tuesday!

God Bless,
Amanda
