I recently got diagnosed with fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I've known I have it for 16 years but I haven't got a proper diagnosis until now. So people have been telling me I'm imagining things...I've never been taken seriously even if my pain has really been visible many times. It's considered an invisible illness, but if you are walking with crutches and have hand braces and ooh and aah because it hurts so much when you move and people tell you it's all in your head?? Well now I've got the medical records to stick under your nose if you don't believe me!
