It’s nice knowing that the utterly attractive “eyes are damn near swollen shut” thing many mornings and nights is NOT my cat allergy (Yes, I’m allergic to cats, but it won’t kill me. I sneeze and deal with far worse reactions to male cats, though. I did some research five or six years ago and discovered that people who are allergic are 99.9% allergic to male cats due to an enzyme in their saliva. However, they freak out so badly that they truly believe they’re allergic to all cats. Once people hear something, getting them to adjust to what they’ve heard isn’t easy.), but is highly likely part of my migraines. Welcome to the fun patrol! 😦

I’ve noticed many people have a thyroid issue co-morbid with Fibromyalgia. I’ve been tested for this and I’m negative (I’ve always tested this way.), however, if you haven’t been tested it’s a good idea to talk to your doctor about it.
