I also have stopped talking about it for the same reasons as you. People respond with things like, "oh I have pain like that, too." No one thinks I have any issues because I look alright. I only talk to my family about PMR and where I am. A good reminder that we never know what another person is going through. Just be kind.

Autoimmune illnesses have earned the name "the invisible illness" for the way it brings you down on your knees but leaves you looking almost healthy. No one believes what you are going through.
