Hey, rant away! That’s why we’re here. Where else can we share and vent where others understand? Read some of my posts if you think yours is long!
I started dealing with chronic pain, fatigue, IBS, and other symptoms of fibromyalgia in 2003. I’m 63 now and these other diagnoses certainly don’t make life easier. I’ve learned and used a lot of mind-body techniques to aid in pain relief and other symptoms from diagnoses. I’m not sure if you’re into that type of stuff, but it can be helpful. It got so difficult for me, living in constant pain and fatigue that I had to find ways to distract myself. It something that has helped me cope. Let me know how your doing and if you proceed with banding!
