Uh oh, I scored 31.
Thanks Renie, That is a good tool to just see where you are, glad you came across it, Hugs, Robin
Hi Renie,
Great link mate and lets hope it helps so many of new members and those still waiting to be properly diagnosed.
Terri :) xxx
This will be a tremendous help for the members who are not yet diagnosed. Great post Renie!
Thank you for sharing!
I scored a 50/100
the results are pretty much what I've been expecting for myself :)
Thank you so very much for posting this link Renie...it will hopefully help many people who are in a conundrum about their symptoms..et al
I won't give MY score' because it scares even me.......aaargh! & grrrrr! because I am STILL having a problem dealing/accepting that I have this 'condition/disease'--knowing full well that I do I am thinking (?) that it's just better to accept that 'we' have this FM condition and 'hopefully' learn how other people deal with this on a daily basis.
It breaks my heart when I see the young people/women post on this site asking how to deal with this disease (?) whilst they are trying to care for their babies/children.
I believe your post will help many people Renie. Again,,,,,,kudo;s (spelling...?)
to you my friend,
tis, Geranium
I scored a 36 :(
46/100 woo hoo. A good tool, but sorry WebMD, I don't see myself becoming a social animal anytime soon, lol, unless sloths make that list.
I just see a blank square from WebMD. I'm going to try going in directly from that site. I want to share it with others.
Hi soonersmile! Good to see you on site! Hope you are well. I just tried it, and it takes a couple minutes to load, and then it comes onto the fibro questionnaire. Hope you can get it to work!
The only thing I scored well on was my knowledge, that was a 20/20!
I'm with you guys, just the thought of socializing stresses me out! And excersise!?!?!
So heath is a whopping 10/40, well being is 22/40, but my knowledge is 20/20.
Not sure what the difference is between health and well being, perhaps ability to move? If that is it, I am surprised I scored as well as i did on the well being! It is still a good basic tool.
I scored 50. I have to agree with everyone else- I am not going to be a social animal any time soon. I have been walking some every day- some days more than others- and that takes a lot out of me so I only have enough energy to do what I need to do around the house. But the exercise agrees with me somewhat and it agrees with Tulip who is ready to go the minute my feet hit the floor. She has lost six pounds and has about 6 pounds to go. It’s pretty sad when even the dog has to be on a diet! LOL
Thanks SK so good to have access again. I will try the tool link again.
