Yay, Jennie!

    Come Yay With Me!

I just found out that Cranky Fibro Girl was named one of the Best Fibromyalgia Blogs of 2014 by Healthline.com!

Of course without you, my wonderful readers, none of this would be possible; I’d just be some random, goofy girl talking to herself in cyberspace 🙂

Thank you so much for the community you’ve helped me create here over the years.
—Jenny Ryan, Cranky Fibro Girl

Yes. Yay, Jennie!

I’ve been following Jennie’s blog for years now. She doesn’t write often, but when she does I always read her. And I’m always rooting for her. Fibromyalgia is a hideous disease, and I hope some day soon they can find better treatments. In the meantime I’ve just reread some of your old posts, Jennie, and I laughed out loud at some of them. Thank you, and bless you!

Yes, yay, Jennie!

    Yes, Yay Jennie.

    Yay to all ye sufferers who are grateful for a wonderful life without the dwelling on what isn’t so wonderful.

      Unfortunately some of those lives aren’t so wonderful. But they deal the best they can with what they’ve been handed.

      Jennie’s posts aren’t so Pollyannaish, I’m afraid. As she says,

      Cranky Fibro Girl used to be a “Very Good Girl”.
      Then she developed a chronic pain disorder.
      Now she is pissed.
      Welcome to her world.

      Her tagline is “Harnessing the healing power of snark.”

    I’m going to visit her. I don’t follow her but it sounds like her blog is good! My docs used to think I had fibro but now they know that I have an autoimmune disease that causes similar symptoms.

      At least doctors are taking these diseases seriously now instead of saying it’s all in people’s minds. I don’t know if this post would be too depressing for you. In addition to fibromyalgia the author has degenerative disc disease, and the doctor is now recommending surgery for her cervical spinal stenosis. And insomnia on top of it all. I’ve just subscribed to her posts too. (I found her in the best-fibromyalgia-sites post.) I can’t do anything to help, but at least I can listen.

      My daughter has a mild form of fibro. It’s painful, but she’s still highly functioning.
