It hurts so badly when those people closest to you act like your pain is not an issue worthy of their time.

Sorry. I just really had to say that to people who could commiserate.

My Fibro has been getting worse over the past 2 years and this past 8 months it's really taking its toll. It's not so much the pain (it's mostly managed..the screaming is down to a dull roar) as it is the medications and how tired I am.

I went to the Del Mar Fair yesterday (a fair that comes to San Diego every summer) and walked around for a good four hours or so, then was sitting down for a concert.
