I FEEL FOR THESE GIRLS AND THEIR MUM. I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH FMS IN 2001. I HAD MULTIPLE PAIN AND SORENESS,CHRONIC FATIUGE AND REFLUX PROBLEMS.I HAVE BEEN ON OXYCONTIN FOR THE LAST 7 YEARS DUE TO SEVERE BACK PAIN. I ALSO TAKE 225MG OF ENDEP, THIS IS USED IN AUSTRALIA FOR DEPRESSION. WHICH I HAVE HAD SINCE CHILDHOOD. ENDEP IS A GREAT PAIN KILLER FOR FIBRO, IT QUIETENS THE NERVES ALL AROUND THE BODY.I HAD TO SPEND SOME TIME IN HOSPITAL THIS YEAR, THE DEPRESSION GOT OUT OF HAND. MY PSHYC CHANGED MY MEDS, WITHIN 5 DAYS I HAD PAIN ALL OVER MY BODY. NERVE PAIN AND MINUTE MUSCLE PAIN,I WAS IN AGONY. I HAD MY HUSBANDS BRING IN THE ENDEP AND WITHIN 24 HOURS THE PAIN HAD GONE. NOW I JUST HAVE MUSCLE SPASMS,,WHICH I CAN MANIPULATE WITH MY THUMBS.THE ENDEP IS SO GOOD I DON/T KNOW I AN SORE, UNTIL I GET A ITCH SOMEWHERE AND I START SCRATCHING. AND TO THIS DAY I AM STILL SHOCKED WHEN I DIG IN TO THE ITCH AND IT IS SO SORE. DOES NOT MATTER WHERE IN MY BODY IT IS SORE. I AM A STRESS HEAD AND SUFFER FROM ANXIETY,SO I AM FOREVER TENSING MY MUSCLES. MY IMMUNE SYSTEM IS SHOT, I FEEL THE COLD AND THE HEAT.MY HUSBAND COMPLAINS BECAUSE HE USED TO DO AIR CON ON CARS. HE TELLS MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS I DO NOT HAVE A THERMOSTAT. THE ONE THING THAT REALLY ANNOYED ME IS NOBODY UNDERSTOOD WHAT MY CONDITION WAS ALL ABOUT. I HAVE SINCE GOTTEN ABOUT AS MUCH INFORMATION AS POSSIBLE AND SENT OUT TO EVERYONE. AND WHEN I FIND SOME NEW RESERCH THAT GETS SENT AS WELL. MY HUSBAND IS MY CARER AND HE IS FANTASTIC. WILL DO ANYTHING FOR ME. I AN VERY LUCKY. MAUREEN ROUSE. MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA.
