My friends and Fu Friends have been asking and wondering why I have not been online much or very sociable. Well I have not been feeling well or sleeping for quite some time now. My doctor has finally discovered the reason. I suffer from Fibromyalgia & Narcolepsy.
Here is alittle information on those health concerns in case you are not sure what exactly I suffer from.
Fibromyalgia syndrome affects the muscles and soft tissue. What Is Fibromyalgia?

What is fibromyalgia syndrome?
A syndrome is a set of symptoms. When they exist together, they imply the presence of a specific disease or a greater chance of developing the disease. With FMS, the following symptoms commonly occur together:
anxiety or depression
decreased pain threshold or tender points
incapacitating fatigue
widespread pain
Narcolepsy
Narcolepsy is a neurological disorder that affects the control of sleep and wakefulness. People with narcolepsy experience excessive daytime sleepiness and intermittent, uncontrollable episodes of falling asleep during the daytime. These sudden sleep attacks may occur during any type of activity at any time of the day.
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS): In general, EDS interferes with normal activities on a daily basis, whether or not a person with narcolepsy has sufficient sleep at night. People with EDS report mental cloudiness, a lack of energy and concentration, memory lapses, a depressed mood, and/or extreme exhaustion.
Cataplexy: This symptom consists of a sudden loss of muscle tone that leads to feelings of weakness and a loss of voluntary muscle control. It can cause symptoms ranging from slurred speech to total body collapse depending on the muscles involved and is often triggered by intense emotion, for example surprise, laughter, or anger.
Those are my reasons for not being around and for not being sociable. I hope everyone understands and now knows that it had nothing to do with anyone personally.
