[namommy]

I have Fibromyalgia, degenerative joint disease, herniated discs in my cervical and lumbar spine, bulging discs in my lumbar spine, spinal degeneration, and some arthritis mostly in my hands. I also have plantars fasciaitis.

I have many other health problems along with the chronic pain stuff. Hep C, Epstein Barr, Lyme Disease, Sleep Apnea, Restless leg syndrome, Insomnia, Depression, Anxiety, Panic Disorder, PTSD.

I have to see a Gastroenterologist for an endoscopy and colonoscopy to find out what my gastrointestinal problems are being caused by as well.

I'm only 46 years old, I'm too young for all of this stuff. It's all backlash from years of using.

Feeling this way at 46 is what gets me so down. Especially since I was so active before all this and I can't do the things I love to do.

I'm slowly finding new hobbies that I've really gotten into that are easy, rewarding, and don't require alot of physical activity. It's just a matter of getting back into a positive attitude and changing the way I do things.

Thanks for being here for support and Thanks SR for starting this forum.
