Additionally, I like the new Gender Specialist doctor. I can work with him.
So all in all, good outcomes.

Tried to go out last night

Been Absent A While
18 JanI know I have been AWOL for a bit. I’ve had some issues with fibromyalgia that have made it a challenge for me to even manage my IADLs. Sleep is still problematic. I’ve slept anywhere from 8 – 10 hours a day, and it’s still at least two hours after I wake before it feels like my head is clear enough to do anything. And of course, pain is a constant companion when I am up and about. I have to admit, I miss Cymbalta’s effect on my pain.
So, yes, I am still here.
