I to am a male with fibro had it for 15 years or more you are right not to many males have fibro years ago I would go to fibro meeting I would leave I felt out of place there I would be the only male with near 20 or more women Dont get me wrong I like women but a little out numbered .I dont have the sleep problem As I read so many people with fibro have I will sleep to much at least 10 hours a night if i dont get at least 10 hours sleep i feel very bad all day sometimes i need 12 hours sleep oh yes after all that sleep i will be tired most of the day .I guess that is what fibro is all about. up till 7 years ago i had a sleep problem i would wake up at 3am every morning for what ever reason i would not be able to get back to sleep till 6am- 7am in the morning by time i got up for work i felt like i was out on a New Years Eve party .. exercise helps a lot i try to lift a small amount of weights and walk a few miles aday plus still work im self employed so i can work at my own pase.If I lift to much weight at one day i will hurt for a few days every thing will be sore Always take it slow and work your self up to much is no good .If you feel like emailing me do so I would like to talk to someone who has some of the same problems as I do .Have a Great Evening Ray
