    Odd question

    I know this is an odd question but does anybody else ever experience flares in their butt cheeks? My butt hurts so bad I can hardly sit down for more than an hour. They also hurt when I lay down. Actually they hurt most of the time. Sometimes walking is very difficult because of the pain.

    Disability

    I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 3 years ago. I am a CMA, not CNA, and had plans to go back and get my RN, but now it seems impossible. When first being diagnosed, the pain would wax and wane, as it does now, but the pain was not as persistent and was more tolerable. I, now, have more...
