We may be more afraid due to george bush, but are we safer? Being fearful does not necessarily make one safer. Fear can cause people to hide and cower. What do you think? How does that work in a democracy again? How does being more threatening make us more likeable?Isn't the country with the most weapons the biggest threat to the rest of the world? When one country is the biggest threat to the rest of the world, isn't that likely to be the most hated country? What happened to us, people? When did we become such lemmings? We have lost friends and influenced no one. No wonder most of the world thinks we suck. Thanks to what george bush has done to our country during the past three years, we do!

For many years I was also undiagnosed, I had chronic pain, fatigue, muscle cramps, I couldn’t sleep and was totally depressed. I just wanted to end my life. Finally a few years ago I saw a rheumatologist and he diagnosed me with fibromyalgia also, finally someone had an answer for me. The doctor was extremely helpful. I used medications which had side effects that didn’t work well for my body, felt lethargic and miserable all the time. I don’t like to be negative and depressed but I really didn’t know how to get out of this cycle or what to do. But what I did do is try alternatives for my symptoms since I had nothing that was working. I tried acupuncture and massage which really helped my pain and gradually I was able to sleep more normally. I started to eat more healthy, exercised, I started meditation classes and used vitamin and mineral supplements. I am writing because I feel so much better now and I want to share my story. There is hope, just don’t feel sorry for yourself, you can change your state, if I did anyone can.

Memories are triggered when I have ice cream fixed a certain way. I could trigger my memories every night if I kept it in the house! When I was a teenager, I went off sugar for 6 months. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done, but the benefits were extraordinary. My mind was clear and my energy level sky rocked. My mood swings came back when I started eating it again. It was the best health choice I ever made, but at the same time, the hardest. Ice cream was a family treat while I was growing up. Memories are triggered when I have ice cream fixed a certain way.

Keep up the good work. I never think of my health until I lose it. When I was young, I thought I was invincible. I played sports, jogged, etc. and now it would be impossible for me to do these things now. I hope all works out well for you, and that you can take your dogs for a walk someday soon. You’re getting closer!! Keep up the good work.

I've heard nothing but good things about Mayo, so I should think they do know what they're talking about. Keep up the excellent work! I’m glad to hear you’re doing well!

I totally get your wanting the simple pleasures in life. I'm sitting a mile from Mayo Clinic at this writing, praying for my little girl to get her hands back, to be able to lift a glass of water or put a shirt on. She has RSD in both her hands. Mayo's reputatation for excellence and my faith in God make me certain that both of you will be healed and return to a normal life. I’m glad the shots were effective.

Just remember every little bit counts. Keeping goals like walking your dogs again will help you get through this and recover faster. I hope your test results turn out well.

I have a difficult time releasing my words to the web where all can see my inner thoughts. Keep up the great work with your weight loss. Even when I lose 2 pounds, it feels like a "weight" has been lifted. I feel lighter and more energetic. Go girlfriend!!! I’m old school also.
