childsca A lot of people have told me to stay out of it. And I know that it's my husband's issue, not mine...but that's a hard thing to keep in mind when I'm going out to work a second job or going to the food bank to get food. It affects me directly.

Fibromyalgia

childsca @childsca (39) • United States 28 Feb 08

childsca Hi. I can. It's a long story so I'll try to be short. First of all, the fatigue. Oh my gosh. Overwhelming. The only way I can describe fibromyalgia pain is it feels like you're lying on a bed of marbles, or that feeling you get after you do a serious ab...

childsca You guys are right. I'm so awful. I forget people are sick when they come in here and are afraid of getting blood work. I'm glad I posed the question. Now I'll think differently or maybe pose the question differently. : )

If you could forbid something at work & make it a policy, what would it be?

childsca @childsca (39) • United States 29 Feb 08
