    How are your kids doing with it?

    My kids sometimes complain that I don't want to go places or do certain things on my bad pain days. It makes me feel depressed and guilty, like I am a bad mother or something. How do your kids react to your fibro, and does it make you worse hearing the complaining from them?

    The "L" word

    If there is one word that drives me mad beyond all others with fibro it is the "L" word - LAZY. For me it is either soul sappingly depressing or makes me so mad I overdo things trying to prove I am not and end up with a flare. When I first diagnosed and being seen by different professionals...
