I too have Fibro. I am 42 and found out I had Fibro when I was 35.
My most pain is in my neck and shoulders. I have headaches mostly everyday.
When I overwork on the farm, I pay dearly with pain a couple of days later.
My favorite thing is riding horse, and somedays it kills, but I will not let that stop me.
I also loved playing volleyball, but had to quite that because I would hurt so bad.
I do take pain medication when needed, and some times have to go to the hospital
for my headaches.
For exercise I have found swiming is the best thing. I too ran 4 miles daily, and had to
quite.
It is a very hard thing to live with, Chronic Fatige is also with me, and it's not fun.
I baby myself and try and take good care of my self.
I have two daughters 19 & 22, and I have been married for 23 years.
Today I have been up since 4:00am with a migraine. I know have an upset stomach
from my pain medication. Throughout the day I hope I feel better.
Take Care
