I'm not feeling that great. I'm experiencing a full blown fibomyalgia flare-up that's in its second week now, and that's very unusual for me at this time of year.

Thanks to all of your for your concern.
@jafabrit
There are others in my family who also have this syndrome that has been known by several other names over the past years, including soft tissue rheumatism, fibrositis and non-articular rheumatism.
Common symptoms include pain and swelling in many joints or soft tissues, trouble sleeping, fatigue and weakness, poor memory, trouble concentrating, stiffness in joints and muscles particularly in the morning, inability to stand the cold, sensitivities to certain foods, medications and/or allergens, depression, tension and migraine headaches.
You could say that I know quite a bit about this disease as it’s had me in it’s grips for 20 years. Simply put, fibromyalgia won’t kill you, but you will die with it. It doesn’t favor anyone … it affects men, women, and children of all ages and races. We live every day, hoping for a cure, praying our families can continue to cope with having to help us live with our invisible disabilities. There is really no definitive cause, and there’s no cure, so coping it what we focus on.
Now that the health care community understands the mechanisms of this disease they do have treatments that have proven to help sufferers reduce and cope with their pain.
You will likely need:
* physical therapy
* occupational therapy
* acupuncture/acupressure
* relaxation/biofeedback techniques
* osteopathic manipulation
* chiropractic care
* therapeutic massage
* gentle exercise program
I do have a post on my blog thistimethisspace .com that may be helpful to you. It's titled: Coping with Fibromyalgia. I also have a category on my blog: Fibromyalgia you may want to check out.

This reminds me of a tee shirt that I had in the 1970's that said, "I'm Okay and You're a Dink"
It was in response to that stupid book, "I'm okay, You're okay"-
@noodlemie
OOPS! you have 2 duplicate threads going here. Here's the link to the other one www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/are-you-ok -
No problem. What happens is that a thread usually only stays on the front page for an hour or so if there aren't many comments. This thread was on the second page which is why you did not find it.
Take a look at the sidebar. In the 4th spot down you see:

Click that link and you will find every thread you have posted to the forum (with the exception of any that Admin deleted).
Now look further down the sidebar and you will see the Discussion searchbox. Type in your username "noodlemie" and select "By Username" drop the drop down menu, and then click "search".
www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/search/user/noodlemie
These are all the comments you have ever posted into forum threads.
There you go. Now you know how to find the Discussion threads that you have posted. And you know how to find the comments you have posted into Discussion threads on the forum.
I hope this helps you and everyone else watching in the sidebar as I type this too.

@timethief.
i find out about it yesterday night,and some people already comment on each thread.i was thinking if i only focus on one thread the other will have less attention,the problem is some people still put on the other thread.u have any suggestion to eliminate one of thread?
and if i re-read the comment what use i shall get from it?since i cant do anything to change it.i only want help from the admin to delete one of the thread,cause i dont want people to think im stupid enough to do this thing to get attention

Well you could post into the other thread saying something like -
Oops! I accidentally started two identical threads. Please do not post into this one members. Please post into the other thread. Here's the link to it (and then supply the link to this thread we are in now.)
If you want to take that a step further you could wait until Monday and then send a PM to Jaybetee in his shoutbox supplying him with the link to the thread you want him to please lock, and explaining why (duplicate thread).
I don't believe anyone will think you are stupid. We all make mistakes and IMO it's really not a big deal. In the forums I moderate I lock and move and delete threads every day.
Please don't be upset.
