Hi, I am new here too. I was officially diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2001, but it took me years to be diagnosed. I also have chronic fatigue syndrome. I've done a great deal of research and if anyone wants to talk about FM or CFS Im ready.

Im back on the phone in 10 minutes, I have 3 other numbers to call and stacks of applications to fill out. The applications will probably have to wait until tomorrow. If it takes as long on the phone today as it did yesterday, I will be lucky to be off the phone by 3 pm...

No, they wont even answer the phone or take messges. I have 1 hr on the first Tuesday of july, august and september to call and try to get thru. If I don't get thru which often happens because the lines are all busy in july I can try again in aug or sept. If I do get thru its only for a screening to see if Im eligible. Im going to bed early tonite. 11pm. Im a bit tired and it will feel good to close my eyes. Talk to you tomorrow my dear friend Annie <3 Kerri Lynn
