When I read the 'stuck in Wyoming' post requesting a do over, I thought of this article and decided to post it again. It is a very good explaination of Fibro. [http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Fibromyalgia+rheumatica](http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Fibromyalgia+rheumatica) BTW, notice 'rheumatica' that is why we should go to a Rheumatologist! ---

Great article. I have an appointment with a new rheumatologist in December. She is youngish and I am hoping more knowledgeable about fibro and its treatments. We shall see. ---

Doing pretty great as far as the healing from the surgery. I have a nice Frankenstein scar down the side of my neck. LOL Actually, it is not too bad. I leave tomorrow to go back to Hotlanta for another barium swallow and then appointment with the surgeon. Hopefully he will give me a clean bill of health and I won’t have to see him again. And, of course, I made cookies for him and the PA and the nurse. They we all so great.i have not heard from Punkin in a long time. Have a great day! It is gorgeous here and we are going to try to get out for a while. ---

MB, you can tell all kinds of stories about that scar! ha! I have plenty of them too! NOT in viewable places anymore! ha! No more bikini's or halter tops for me! ha! I'll be thinking of you, and wishing you well with the swallowing! Hope it was a complete success! I'll see if I can rally that Punkin, I miss that 'spark'!
