Update to I Have to Cross the Border

When I was in to have my blood pressure checked by my doctor, I asked what the results of my second rheumatoid arthritis test was. The results were normal. I do NOT have arthritis.

Having ruled out arthritis, lupus, MS, brain tumours, and anything dietary, it appears I have fibromyalgia. Granted, I am functional as I am at this moment. Being pregnant makes seeking treatment almost impossible so I'll wait and see what happens after the baby is born and after I've done my breastfeeding "thing" for a year. I'll have to see what my body does at that point and decide what I want to do.

I have a name for why my (almost) 34 year old body is acting like an 80 year old's. LOL

Ain't it grand when your body decides it doesn't agree with you calendar? My FRICKIN' OVARY is killing me this month. Can't we just be done with this ^%$^$% already?!?! Do we get trade-ins?

Sorry, no trade ins on most parts and accessories. Most of it is custom ordered so no refunds either. LOL
