Probably since my early teens I have fought with pain. However I was only diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in my early twenties. If you want to know more, please see my Living with Fibromyalgia post. Otherwise please see my latest Fibromyalgia Blog Posts below.

I have had, out of the blue, chats in games and the occasional tweet where people expressed some surprise at what I have […]
I have been running my rather haphazard Twitch Channel for over a year now. I started by wondering if I could even “do” this streaming thing. I made the mistake of looking at successful streamers’ followers and subscriber numbers and nearly frightened myself away completely. I persisted, but it has been both a rewarding and […]
