About GracieG

When I was born I was deprived of oxygen because the Dr was negligent at my birth. when I was in Collage I was hit by a car while I was crossing the street in my scooter and developed a tumor on my skull and that is also when all my pain started. From that day iv'e never felt well. I had massive body aches and the worst migraines combine that with Cerebral palsy you have a pain in the ass. I have been to a dozen doctors/specialists and no one knew how to help me. In 2005 I went to a pain clinic in Seattle and they swore this pain was from the Cerebral Palsy. CP doesn't cause pain!

More About GracieG

The botox shots started and that was NOT was i needed because thoes shots were like a band aide for a short time.. Fast foreword to 2008 I went to see a pain Dr at the UW hospital. I was told i had fibromyalgia. That Dr took me off all my meds even my antidepressants and put me on Lyrica and Cymbalta. Nither of them never worked for me as for the pain. I went back on my antidepressant Effexor and saw a Rhumatalogist. Xrays,blood work you name it, it was done. Rheumatoid runs in my family. My aunt had the worst case by the time she passed away in 2005. I found out after the tests i didn't have RA (thank goodness) just a nice case of  Ostio Arthritis along with Fibromyelgia and Cerebral Palsy! I live in the san Juan islands now as of last summer and of course the WA state weather could not be so unhelpful to me! I have lower back pain, feet kill me, hands , you name it!
