    My FM

    In 1983 I was diagnosed with 'Mixed Connective Tissue Disorder'. I had some pain, but had extreme fatigue. IN 1990, at age 43, I had a 'flare up' and saw a rheumatologist who diagnosed FM. What a relief to finally have a definitive diagnosis! All these years I have had occasional flare-ups...
