    Very tormented

    Have been recently diagnosed with hasimotos thyroiditus which is very similar to fibromyalgia or some doctors say it's the same thing. I am just so tormented.

    I have no life with Fibromyalgia

    It's been a bad day today. I'm aching all over and exhausted. My daughter says Mom you are boring,you didn't used to be this way. My daughter doesn't understand how my life has changed with this condition. I would like to get a better understanding about this condition.
