                        Hi.  I have fm and so does my best friend Patrice.  She smokes and has been smoking since she was 13  - she is 41.  Her pain from fm is very bad and since I have known her, she has tried quitting every way possible.  In the 7 years I have known her, she has quit and gone back about 30 times.  I keep telling her that quitting will help her pain and get her immune system back to working a bit better.  I am sure it won't cure the fm - but it has to help.  Please e-mail her for me.  She just went 9 days without smoking, was going insane and then went back.  She feels so defeated.  Her e-mail address is Patrice1818@aol.com and tell her Maryann sent you!!!  She needs all the help she can get.  Thanks so much and good luck to you with your quitting!!  Congratulations
