Why me, why any of us - Fibromyalgia Message Board

this disease is so horrorfying. NO rest, no peace, no pain meds to help. Why ???? I'm so sad. Sad for myself and sad for all who suffer. I never did anything to hurt anyone, neither have any of you hurt anyone. I'm sure you are all wonderful people. I look at people like Scott Peterson, who kills his beautiful wife, who was ready to have their child, why doesn't HE get fibromyalgia. He deserves it, not any of us. I always tried to help my fellow human being, whether I liked them or not. I'm just having a tough time dealing with all this. Here it is Easter and I can't even boil water to make the eggs with my son. Last year I had everything prepared and my husband and son had the best time. I'm praying for an Easter miracle even if just for one day to be relieved of these symptoms.

Have you looked into the guaifenesin protocol?

Hatefibro,
I hear you!! I call this thing "The Beast!" If your seeing a doc, see if you can get a drug, (I take nuerontin) that treats nerve pain. Reg. pain killers don't work well for people that have fibro. I was amazed how much better I felt using this.

after i said why me i answered why not me? there is nothing that says i will be spared the learning lessons that only illness bring. none of us are. you cannot wish this away. you cannot angry it away. you can learn to make room for it in your life and find a life as you are.
i have been at this for more than 10 years. the most important lesson i have learned to date is acceptance and peace as i am. may you find the path to your peace my dear friend in pain.
peace,
