For those of you who don't know (and I haven't been around much lately), I have fibromyalgia. It was described to me once as a migraine all over your body...a very good description.
My mother also passed away last month due to lung cancer. I have been having problems with my family (I am just a stupid stay at home so what do I know when my brother is a doctor and makes SOOOOOOO much more than my hubby? Even though we are very comfortable and want for nothing)
Anyway, I was having chest pains so I went to the doc, then they sent me to the emergency room because of an abnormal EKG. 5 freakin hours in the emergency roon not allowed to eat or drink, poked, prodded etc. finally told it could have been this or that (maybe kidney stones) but basically a major breakdown and fibro flair.
So what am I doing while my hubby and son are peacefully sleeping? I am waiting for the darn laundry to be done so we have towels to use in the morning. I am getting my son's bookbag ready for school tomorrow. I am so pathetic.

You are not pathetic - but you do need to think about taking some time for yourself.
Hugs to you, hon. You are not pathetic!! I'm sorry you have had so much going on and you are not feeling well!! Take care of yourself!!
Hugs,
Wendy

I have a friend who used to be a nurse but had to quit after being diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Being on her feet all day long was just too painful. She's a very happy SAHM now.
I'm sorry your family isn't supporting you the way you need!! All I can say is take care of yourself and don't let them get you down.
