Update

Wow, it's been a long time since I've posted on my blog. I'll see if I can catch up. 
I don't have fibromyalgia. I have a condition called polymayalgia rheumatica. Sounds interesting, huh? It's an inflammatory condition that rarely occurs to people under the age of 50 (ok, so I've given away the fact that I"m 50+). I've been on prednisone for a month now, and I'm feeling a lot better. Prednisone is one of the wonderful yet awful drugs. I've also started on amytriptiline at night. So far so good.
I'm also finding long lost relatives. I've been trying to find my natural father's family (that I've never met), and have found quite a few. It's really exciting. I'm seeing old pix of them. I'm hoping to meet them sometime.
I'm planning a vacation in August. Going to NY to visit friends and family. Probably stay in Long Island, but take the train into the city a few days to get my fix of food and culture, and family. Then in Long Island I'll have more friends and family to visit. I'm really looking forward to this.
Hope everyone has a wonderful week. Keep smiling!
