    I am tried all the time. I drink energy drink,coffee, energy pills, protein drinks .brain fog is really bad , I can’t concentrate on anything . I can’t remember things that I read . I’ve been trying hard to learn how to be a herbalist but I just can’t remember I have to write down everything I had sticky notes everywhere . I make a list of things I have to do every day and keep it all over the house . I won’t my brain back ,I’m afraid it will never return ,I hope you find a cure soon . Using Medicare has limited amount of medicines I can have and limit the doctors that I can have .I can’t go to Philly anymore I really miss my doctor.. my family doctor really doesn’t understand this disease and it’s hard to explain him he doesn’t understand that it still hurts even with all the drugs I take now . I have no money left to pay for Lyrica and I’ve been taking it for last four years .now I’m going to have to go through With draw . I have to go to my family doctor and tell them that I can’t afford to pay for this medicine anymore I really want to say ,WTF .

    When it flares up, I hurt so bad it hurts just to have my clothes touch it. Even though it hurts getting up and moving some does help ease it a little bit. The cold weather affects it and also when the weather is getting ready to change.

    Some days all I do is lay in bed and cry. I've lost my job and my marriage because no one understands. I look fine outside, but on the inside I'm not!
