Just Curious


I was wondering how many of you, who have either a fibromyalgia or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/M.E. diagnosis works or worked in the medical field and/or have family members who are in the military... or live near a military base ?

I have worked with 3 R.N.'s who had a fibromyalgia diagnosis. One of them is currently disabled, another one ended up having kidney problems (I'm assuming it has to do with vitamin D dysregulation) and the last one I'm not sure (haven't seen her in years). I also worked with another nurse who had unusual health problems (strange rashes, etc.) and she swore that she had her mystery diagnosis after her ex-husband returned from the Gulf War --- with GWS that is.
