Lisy's Story
In 2009 I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Living with fibromyalgia hasn’t been an easy journey either. I was so scared because I had no idea what was wrong with me. I felt like I got run over by a truck and wearing clothes hurt. Before my diagnosis, I visited the hospital several times, and they still couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me. So, I became my own advocate. I kept researching until I found doctors that believed me and helped me during this hard time.
