Blog Stuff
I have found that blogging has been really great for me.
If you don't have a blog, but are considering making one, here are some good resources:

I did see another orthopedist about my shoulder. Wasn't impressed. The technician wanted to redo my x-rays. Even though I told him I'd had one done just two weeks earlier! They really did NOT need to do them again, as I could bring them into the doctor. They wanted the income from it, I am sure that was their only goal.
No thanks.
I won't return to THAT doctor. I am very happy with my chiropractor, however. :)
Psychiatric solutions for health problems
If you are considering taking psychiatric medications, because your doctor has not given you an adequate medical solution for your pain from fibromyalgia, please study this issue thoroughly first.
Whether it's Prozac for the "pain relief" (which it doesn't provide anyway), or Ritalin to help with fibrofog, you should know that these are not cures, and will leave your very real condition untreated.
