Hey all.  It's been a while since I've blogged.  I just wanted you all to know that I've finally found out what's wrong with me.  It's not just arthritis after all.  I also have Fibromyalgia.  I'm so relieved to know why I hurt ALL the time and why I'm always exhausted.  I knew it couldn't just be the arthritis.  Not like this. 

Fibromyalgia is not a disease that will worsen in time.  It's treatable, but not curable.  It's not gonna kill me.  The Dr and I are working on finding the right drug combo to make me more comfortable.  Once we figure that out, she says I can go days, even months without any symptoms.  Thank God for that!  I can't wait to start feeling good again.  And yes, like the arthritis, I prolly would've had it later on in life, but dear old chemo just brought it on sooner.  sigh

So, there ya go.  I just wanted everyone to know so I don't have to keep telling everyone.  I'll just tell you all at once.   Below is a link for a site you can go to for a better explanation of what fibromyalgia is.  I don't want to explain it because I'm just learning myself.  So, go check it out and I'll catch ya'll on the flip side!
