OMG, Where do I begin?
I am 52, married, to my sweetheart, Denney. I live in Fort Collins, Colorado. I have two grown kids, Mike.. married and my sweet grandson, Nicholas. My daughter Cindy, 24 and has a great guy!
I started out with stomach problems when I was 20 years old. Always diagnosed with IBS. Was diagnosed with Fibromyalsia and Chronic Fatigue when I was 35, diagnosed with a brain tumor on my brain stem, which they were able to take a sample of, and than goodness it was benign. Have it checked by an MRI two times a year. They couldn't remove it because of where it is located.
I have thyroid issues, osteo arthritis, degenerative bone disease, and my spine is a mess. But I have steroid shots a couple of times a year, and they sometimes help with the sciatica.
I was diagnosed with MC about 4 and a half years ago, by biopsy. I take an antideppresant, and eat very carefully. All of the meds. they put me on I had bad reactions to, so I mainly just watch what I eat, and take an over the counter med. called equalactin, once a day. I have flare ups, with one thing or another at one time or another. It seems like something is always going on. I have learned to live with my problems, with alot of Faith, and trying to take a day at a time.
