Do you remember the story of the Princess and the Pea?
Is there a site where I can find that story? I think the Princess had Fibromyalgia like me and if she ever DID get to sleep It was out of sheer exaustion. Please help me find the story I need it to make a little fun analogy for my support group nex week! Thanks :)
lol thanks ...anyone else?

1. Download this one. The story is called 'the real princess' by Hans Christian Andersen, and is the third story in the collection below.

2. Making a long story short: The princess was tested by placing a pea between herself and a bunch of mattresses. The fact that she could detect the pea was an indication of her delicateness and true princess status. I don't think fibromyalgia figures into it.
Have you tried massage? I have a friend with fibromyalagia and massage helps her.
