I have had a very good friend struggling with the effects of fibromyalgia now for several years. I have watched the struggles and pain cross her face as she tried to complete daily homemaking activities such as cleaning, cooking, and washing the dishes. She would be in conversation and finishing up something really quick and all of a sudden, a whimper of pain would escape her lips as she grabbed at several parts of her body at once. Sometimes, her back would bother her, other times, would be her wrists, or legs. Everyone began to look around the room with curious expressions across their face trying to understand or figure out why the pain surfaced in the first place.
