As someone who suffers from FMS & CFS, I appreciate you voicing your opinion on this topic. I've reached a point that I try hard to not let it get under my skin as much as it used to. Of course, it is still hard to deal with skeptics, or what I consider...ignorant people, but there will always be people like that. I'm very fortunate to have a team of healthcare providers who understand and are educated on FMS and CFS, and support me in every way they can. My family and closest friends have been awesome as well. Of course there has been an educational period for everyone, including myself. The people that matter most, are the ones who have taken the time to try and understand my illnesses, and that shows me how much they care. I don't have time for those who stand judging, but have never walked a day in my shoes. I give them a day, and they'd change their tune pretty quick ;) Thanks again, loved your post.
