Ok, so here it is...my b'day is coming up (Tuesday, 20th). Last year's big 30th bash was a bust. Only 2 people showed up for it, one only b/c I picked them up!! LOL Anyway, the 24th, next Saturday, we're gonna try this thing again! At Szarka's, on Pinecroft. Those who read this and are local are welcome to join us! Music, cake, fun and dancing to be had by all! Maybe this birthday will be more memorable!
As for other news...
I have joined a fibromyalgia clinical trial study to test out a medication that was previously billed for depression, anxiety and the like. It's called Cymbalta. It also helps with pain, and some early "trials" have indicated that it can help people with FM pain. I start the med next Friday. It's a 6 month trial, and during that time I'll have all my meds, dr visits, lab tests, etc paid for by the trial. I will also be compensated for time and travel. I'm looking forward to this trial and hoping this med will help b/c I feel I have reached a plateau with what I'm currently taking.
I'm also unemployed, with no chance for retribution b/c of the way that it was handled by my former employer. When it all boils down, I was let go for medical reasons, however due to the way my employer went about it, they covered their asses so that I couldn't come back and sue the pants off of em. If I could, believe me, I would own them! So I am drawing unemployment currently, as well as looking for a job. Which, isn't an easy task due to the limited physical stamina of FM.
Ok, that's off my chest. I hope this year is better for all of you than it's starting out for me!
