Sharon’s Story
Novi, MI

It took a good year-and-a-half to heal, but the pain never went away. It actually started to spread all over into my hips, my back, my legs, and my shoulders.

Over the next ten years, I saw MDs, DOs, acupuncturists, chiropractors, surgeons, even a shaman. I knew in my heart that something was wrong, but I could never figure out what it was.

I just continued on until one physician said, "I know what you have. Fibromyalgia." That was my turning point.

I have been seeing the same physician every month for 19 years now. We work together as a team.

Today, I take care of myself physically first, and then look at the goals that I want to achieve in my life. It’s important to not just focus on the pain, but to focus on life and smile at all we have.
