I'm glad I 've joined PsychCentral now . I've had fibro for just over 30 years . I ended up haveing it real it's ugly head due to a motorcycle wreck in 1981 , just one week after my oldest daughter was born . It was my first time being able to be away from home . My brother and I were rear ended by a drunk driver . The drunk was convicted of his 9th dui !!! He got a slap on the hand ... I came out of it without a scratch . I began to have pain in my back which got more and more severe . I thought it was just having kids at an early age . I was married when I was 16 , he was killed in 1989 9 years after we were married . Anyway needless to say I've found that my late mom and probably my grandma both had fibro too . I think after living with this pain for 30+ years I can answer questons on herbs and on how to deal with those nasty doctors who begin the visit with " WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU ARE REALLY SICK???"
