Do I Really Need a Reason?

I always find this conversation funny. It seems to happen a few times a week.

Them: What’s Wrong?
Me: I’m tired (Also interchangeable with I don’t feel good.)
Them: Did you sleep good last night?
Me: Of course not (Secretly thinking I have fibromyalgia. I don’t need a reason to be tired. I am always tired.)

Plus, if I say I’m achy the other person asks if I have the flu. Keep in mind that these are all people who know I have fibromyalgia. It would be so nice to finally be able to just say that I feel good and mean it.

    I take meds to sleep, help w/ pain. Started Savella in late Nov., some improvement but not to a point where I can honestly say, “I feel good today.” Besides so-called-friends (who aren’t any more) saying they’ve heard fibro isn’t real, to the male Dr.s who question me about all my symptoms, then say, “do you know many Dr.s do not believe it in?” -I am often at a loss to what comes next.

    I also find the same, sometimes I feel a bit shy in the conversation, don’t know why this happens. All my friends and colleagues remain calm in their conversation but I bother.
