I forgot to ask if your rheumatologist gave you any suggestions for helping the fibromyalgia symptoms. Mayo Clinic has a little information that you might want to look at here: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/fibromyalgia/diagnosis-treatment/treatment/txc-20317826
There is also a Fibromyalgia Pain discussion that you might want to join in on and read what other Connect members are sharing. It might be helpful and another group of Connect members who are sharing your symptoms. You can view the discussion here:

Hi @zinniagal - that's weird? I can click on the link and it takes me to the discussion. Try this one - it's the first page in the discussion

P.S. - Zinnias have replace Marigolds as one of my favorite flowers. A girl at the office gave me a bunch of seeds she saved from her Zinnias and I put them in some outside pots and they look really nice. I'm going to try saving the seeds from the flowers and planting them again next year.
Thanks John! My mom planted zinnias all the time when I was little & I still love them & plant seeds every year.
i am in love with morning glories. one year when i was 8 my father beat me so badly (again for no reason) and all my sisters were laughing at me. i was so cowed i limped over to a corner of the yard trying to hide.when i saw a tiny flower in the back corner. i went closer and saw a tiny light blue morning glory, all by itself as if it were waiting for me it was the most beautiful thing i have ever seen. .later in life i have planted morning glory seeds and enjoy my life where i am respected, to think that such a small thing can change an outlook on life and give hope when it was so very needed. see, even the very smallest things can help an outlook on life. this is peachbarb and i do suffer with the same ailments as you do. just wanted to give a little hope! with love
