National Fibromyalgia Awareness Day

I could not let this day pass without posting. My wish for this day are several to be honest. The first thing is that the medical world would first and for most recognize this as a real disease. It is as real as diabetes, CHF, COPD or any other disease that is out there. Second that there is some type of management of this diseases. I  know that there will not be a cure, but there has to be a way to handle it better then there is now. Third would be that people who call you there friends, but in the end are not, would not be like oh you don't act like there is a problem most days so there is not one or that they make fun of you on days when you really can't walk by saying well you just need to walk it off. You can't walk this off, yes exercise is good for this disease but in moderation. You should never push yourself to do anything that you can't do when you are in pain because with this disease  trust me it can & will get worse. Sorry for the complaining but I just had to vent!
