I am a teen, 18 to be exact, and I will tell you all about me and my pain and stuff! I promise. Just give me a few hours because I'm already late for school! (Senior year--12 more days!) I'll be home a little after 10:30 and will get on right away ... which I do anyway, but, yeah...
GOd bless!

Thanks alot. I was just wondering because i have been suffering from weakness and pain since october and the doctors have failed to diagnose me with anything and i just want my life back.
That is always what the doctors say to begin with. It took me a very long time to convince my doc that it wasn't all in my head and when I was finally sent to a pediatric rhuemetologist it was confirmed that I was correct. It isn't all in my head, it is very very real.
