I have been suffering with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for 8 years. It came on suddenly after surgery for breast cancer and reconstruction. I have had increasing arthritis over those years as well. I currently suffer daily with chronic pain and chronic fatigue. I have been on total disability for two years. Prior to my symtoms, I was very athletic. I ran 6 miles 3 days per week and competed in ballroom dance all over the United States. The arthristis has also reached all of my joints including my shoulders. Everyday is a struggle for me. It has been so debilitating for me.
