>> Please do not compare it to fibromyalgia

ROFL! As I was reading the first couple sentences of your sob story, somehow I KNEW this was coming. It’s BS. Fibromyalgia is an insurance-approved label for a psychosomatic victim non-disease. In other words, it’s a way to get society to pay (dearly) for laziness and whining victimhood.

Question for you: how the hell did the earth ever reach 6 billion in population with all these mysterious allergies and psychosomatic diseases killing us off over the years? Inescapable answer: BECAUSE THEY’RE NOT REAL. The alternative: you believe that they all just mysteriously appeared in the last decade? Yeah. Riiiiiight.

Prior generations of Americans — and the VAST MAJORITY of the world TO THIS DAY — weren’t (and aren’t) afflicted with all this make-believe crap because they were (and still ARE) too concerned with getting through each day.

Only health-paranoia pampered self-indulgent Oprah-and-Phil-bombarded American twits buy into this nonsense.

Did I offend your delicate sensibilities? Cool.

I dont think you can read

I was agreeing with you that fibromyalgia is not a real diagnosis. However, anaphylaxis (I’m not talking about a few hives and an upset tummy) is a real diagnosis. I have seen it in my own child and treated it in ICU’s for 25 years. You dont get placed on a ventilator and epinephrine drips for psychosomatic illnesses

You didn’t offend me — you don’t have enough intelligence to be offensive. But nice try
