That I do not.

ETA: We think mine was triggered by Ciprofloxacin, when I had a really bad reaction to it.

I’d say autism, and my wife is a very healthy T1D. Lots of people do not know the difference between type 1 and 2. But, there are just so many different levels of autism that so many more eoe are unaware of.

It’s sad that people like you think that people with invisible illness should just disappear or suffer in silence

Especially if it’s predominantly intrusive thoughts and not “Hollywood” OCD (washing hands, counting, etc).

You would be surprised how much of the general public doesn’t understand the difference between type 1 and type 2.

I've heard fibro can be manageable but the myalgia is what brings you to your knees.

I don’t think the general public has a need or responsibility to understand either of these, since they don’t impact most people. I don’t mean this to sound harsh.

The golden standard for Fibro is nerve pain drugs (not opioids) or SSRIs. You’re proving his point.

Lol, no it’s. Have a family member that was a meth addict for years, who got “sober” and now takes RX suboxone for fibromyalgia, and states she will never be able to live without it.
Additionally, I have people come in constantly that are on copious different opioids for fibromyalgia.

Have you considered trying THC? I just puff on a pen a few times a week and I haven't had a seizure in awhile. Everyone is different but people automatically think you have to be stoned all the time to try it as a treatment

Naw, never came up. I don't think my wife would like that even with a doctor Rxing it.
