Fibromyalgia

I am a 41-year-old stay at home wife, that has 3 grown boys.

Currently, I am in a flare of symptoms and have been running crazy trying to find out what is going on.

I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 11 years ago and my life has not been the same, yet I have pushed through raising my boys and working as a preschool teacher despite how I felt.

This last year the symptoms have been heightened to the point I have had to leave my career. I have been sent to numerous doctors and had many tests. I was sure we would find the cause of my Fibromyalgia or something else was going on, yet all the results point to nothing else wrong. I have always worked at being upbeat and started a blog pursuing joy in the midst of pain, years ago with this diagnoses, not letting Fibromyalgia define me. But this last year I am feeling tired with this journey and my quality of life has been robbed

My hope is through this journey of flare, and looking for answers, I will be able to help someone else that is searching as well.
